Dissolving External Glory

Isaiah 20:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 20 in context

Scripture Focus

5And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
Isaiah 20:5

Biblical Context

Isaiah 20:5 states that Ethiopia's expectation and Egypt's glory will cause people to be afraid and ashamed. It highlights that outward powers we rely on can fail, leaving us exposed.

Neville's Inner Vision

Isaiah's fear and shame is not a historical moment but a map of consciousness. Egypt and Ethiopia symbolize outward powers you have trusted for security and glory—the ideas of success and protection you have worshiped as real. When those glories fail to deliver, fear and shame arise, showing you that you have built your world on appearances. Neville would say the city of God is within and the outer signs must bow to the inner state you assume. The moment you stop leaning on external guarantees and enter the I AM, you revise the program that produced the old fear. The disillusionment becomes a door through which you enter the inner kingdom, where you are not a victim of conditions but the designer of your experience. From that inner state, outer events align with your new premise and the old props fall away.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume the feeling I am the I AM, secure in God within. Feel fear dissolve as you rest in the inner certainty that replaces Egypt and Ethiopia with the I AM.
