Inner Consequence of Rebellion

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard’s method, Isaiah 1:20 is not a history lesson but a map of consciousness. To refuse and rebel is to resist the I AM within, to clutch a stubborn image that says you are separate from the source and its abundance. The devouring sword is the inevitable result of living in that resistance; your outer world becomes a mirror of that inner fracture. And the mouth of the LORD that has spoken it is the inner voice of divine law, the word that gives form to your life. When you persist in rebellion, you seal a decree that your world must obey, and so you experience its consequences. But the law can be reversed the moment you revise your image and reoccupy your awareness with unity and wholeness. Obedience, in this sense, is not fear or duty but the willingness to align with the living presence that animates all things. In this alignment, judgment gives way to justice, and promise becomes your immediate reality because you have reentered the state from which all outcomes flow.
