Inner Cleansing and Restoration

Isaiah 1:16-19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 1 in context

Scripture Focus

16Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
17Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
Isaiah 1:16-19

Biblical Context

God invites cleansing and turning away from evil. If you are willing and obedient, you will taste the good of the land.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Isaiah’s invitation I hear a whisper for the mind: to wash is to decide a new state of consciousness. The 'evil of your doings' are dream-beliefs you have accepted as real; you put them away by shifting attention from limitation to possibility. 'Cease to do evil' becomes a cessation of rehearsing separation, and 'learn to do well' becomes the daily practice of imagining justice, relief for the oppressed, and the protection of the vulnerable as already done in my inner world. The dialogue 'come now, let us reason together' is not with a distant God but with the I AM I live as now. Sins being scarlet and becoming white as snow are the changing colors of my inner color-tone when I refuse to identify with guilt and instead assume a new state. If I am willing and obedient—if I align my assumption with the truth that I am pure consciousness—I'll eat the good of the land in due time as my inner state manifests as outward good.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and repeat 'I am clean' or 'I am willing and obedient' while breathing slowly; visualize a bright white wash cleansing your mind; hold the feeling for a minute and allow the sense of 'the good of the land' to form in your awareness.
