Stirred Medes Within
Isaiah 13:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
A power is stirred to move against a people. Wealth cannot deter or distract that force.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this verse the Medes stand as a symbol of stirring states of consciousness within you. The prophecy speaks not of distant armies but of inner movements that arise when the lure of silver and gold loses its grip. Your I AM, that infinite awareness, stirs these Medes to act—not to punish you but to shake you awake. When you entertain a vivid image and feel it as already real, you unleash these inner forces; they sweep through your life, overturning old agreements and ushering in new alignments. Providence is not a tyrant but the natural law of imagination at work, guiding you from perceived exile toward a return to wholeness. If you fear loss, or see the city of your heart as Babylon, choose a different posture: imagine the Medes doing their work in your mind, and rest in the certainty that your inner state governs outer events. The promise of the verse is your invitation to assume the one state that needs no wealth to prove its reality: I AM.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the feeling that your I AM stirs the Medes within you and that wealth has no sway over your inner state. Revise any doubt by feeling it real right now.
