Humility's Rise Within
Isaiah 2:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 2:17 declares that human pride will be humbled and God alone exalted. In Neville's terms, this is a shift of consciousness, not a future event, where the I AM rises and the sense of separation fades.
Neville's Inner Vision
That verse is not a history lesson about nations; it is a mirror for your inner life. The loftiness of man is a state—an inner posture that says, 'I am the doer, I am in charge.' When you allow the I AM to rise as your sole ruler, that posture bows, and the haughtiness of men is made low. In Neville's language, the day Isaiah speaks of is the moment you awaken to the LORD within—the I AM as awareness that animates your thoughts, feelings, and choices. Exaltation is not a conquest of others; it is the recognition that God is the only reality you inhabit. As you maintain the assumption, 'I am the I AM,' pride dissolves, and humility becomes your natural response. The world around you reorganizes to mirror this inner truth, not by force, but by alignment with divine reality. Stay with the feeling of being held by the presence you name as God, and watch the outward scene bow to your inner exaltation.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state 'I AM' as your only ruler; hold that assumption until the sense of separation fades and the outer scene begins to reflect that inner exaltation.
