The Inner Spirit Resting Upon You

Isaiah 11:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 11 in context

Scripture Focus

2And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;
Isaiah 11:2

Biblical Context

Isaiah 11:2 describes the Spirit of the LORD resting on one person, granting wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and reverence for the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Listen to Isaiah 11:2 as a map of your own inner life. The 'spirit of the LORD' resting upon him is not a distant event but a state of consciousness you may choose to occupy. When you enter this state, you are governed less by fear or habit and more by a steady, holy awareness—the I AM that you really are. The 'spirit of wisdom and understanding' becomes your inner discernment; you see the meaning behind appearances, you know what to do, and you refuse to be ruled by confusion. The 'spirit of counsel and might' provides guidance and power from within, so you move with clarity and quiet strength, not by steam of effort but by inspired direction. The 'spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD' is knowledge of the divine law within your own heart—reverence, trust, and a fidelity to truth. Resting in this Spirit, your outer life aligns with that inner order, and every circumstance becomes a signal of your state of consciousness rather than a cause of it.

Practice This Now

Assume the stated state and feel it: 'I am the resting Spirit of the LORD within me—wise, discerning, and powerful.' Then let that luminous rest settle in your mind and guide you in the next moment.
