Bound Strength, Imagined Mischief
Hosea 7:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hosea 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God has strengthened and bound their arms, yet their inner imagination imagines mischief against Him.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine the situation as states of consciousness. 'Arms bound and strengthened' are your capacities anchored in the I AM—your discipline, your courage, your alignment with divine purpose. Yet to imagine mischief against me is to occupy a consciousness that distrusts the very source of strength. In truth, you are not fighting an external foe; you are wrestling with inner images and beliefs that misinterpret the binding as threat. When you see God as outside you, you project hostility and fear, creating spiritual warfare within. The moment you revise this: 'I AM bound and strengthened by divine intention, and there is no other power but this I AM,' the mischief disappears from your inner theater. The I AM that binds and fortifies is not the cause of trouble but the ground of peace; your imagination is the instrument by which reality is formed. By turning from imagined mischief to the conviction that God is the inner presence, you align your actions with Providence and experience protection, guidance, and unwavering support.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, declare: 'I AM bound and strengthened by the I AM; no imagined mischief can touch me,' and feel the divine alignment as real.
