Damascus Reimagined Within You
Isaiah 17:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Damascus represents a fixed state of mind, a city of pride or aggression. The verse says that state will be removed, leaving it as a ruinous heap.
Neville's Inner Vision
I hear the map of Damascus as a fragile inner city of warlike thoughts and pride. The burden here is not fate but a certain posture of consciousness you have mistaken for yourself. When you permit the I AM to act, that inner city is taken away from being a city, and its walls crumble into a ruinous heap. This ruin is not punishment but a clearing of space for a higher order to be born. The prophecy points to your inner Kingdom: as the old form vanishes, peace, faith, and creative power may arise where fear and aggression once stood. Do not resist the demolition; yield to it as the hand of God within your own mind. By adjusting your sense of self to reflect the truth that you are consciousness, you invite events to conform to the new state you have already assumed. In that moment you discover that the greatest destruction is simply the old structure yielding to the living presence of God within.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Sit quietly and repeat 'I AM' until the sense of the old city dissolves. Visualize Damascus collapsing into a ruinous heap and watch a brighter inner Kingdom rise in its place.
