Neville Goddard on Isaiah 11:3-5 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 11 in context

Scripture Focus

3And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:

4But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

5And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

Isaiah 11:3-5

Biblical Context

It describes a ruler who judges not by appearances but from reverent wisdom. He upholds righteousness for the poor and carries faithfulness as his girdle.

Neville's Inner Vision

See the verse as a map for your inner life. It is not about a distant king, but about you choosing a state of reverent awareness that governs every thought and act. When you hold that reverence for the LORD, you stop judging by what you see or hear and begin judging by an inner standard of rightness. You respond to the meek with equity; you refuse the voice of fear and you breathe out power to dissolve seeming wickedness. The 'rod of his mouth' and the 'breath of his lips' describe the vibrational power of your words when your mind is aligned with this state, words that disarm limitation and awaken justice within. Let righteousness be the belt about your loins and faithfulness the belt about your reins; let these inner garments become your habitual pattern. As you persist in this assumption, your outer experience mirrors a mind anchored in these qualities, and you become living evidence of the verse.

Practice This Now

Assume this state now: close your eyes, feel reverence guiding you, and revise any snap judgment into a just alternative. Repeat quietly, 'I am righteousness and faithfulness in action,' until the sentiment sits as your reality.
