Neville Goddard on Isaiah 11:14-16 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 11 in context

Scripture Focus

14But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.

15And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.

16And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.

Isaiah 11:14-16

Biblical Context

These verses depict a future of deliverance where enemies are defeated and a highway is opened for the remnant. They symbolize inner liberation and a renewed alignment with God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the verse as a map of your inner geography. The 'enemies' are beliefs you have outgrown; the 'Philistines' you ride on are the conditions of doubt and fear you have surrendered to the I AM. When you dwell in the consciousness that you are, here and now, these former powers are displaced by your unwavering awareness. The 'tongue of the Egyptian sea' and the 'seven streams' are inner currents that once seemed impassable; by the wind of realization they part, and you walk dry-shod. The highway for the remnant is the persistent state you maintain—an inner road traced by the certainty that God is your immediate presence. This is not conquest in time but a conversion of your mind: as you align with I AM, external signs rearrange to suit that inner order. Your exodus is a return to a remembered oneness, a life lived from the fulfilled state rather than from lack.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, place your hand on your chest, and declare 'I AM the highway now.' Feel the dry-shod crossing and let that assured presence fill your body, repeating as needed for a few minutes.
