Neville Goddard on Isaiah 25:1-3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 25 in context

Scripture Focus

1O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

2For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.

3Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.

Isaiah 25:1-3

Biblical Context

Isaiah 25:1-3 extols God’s faithfulness and truth, proclaims that human fortresses fail, and declares that the strong will honor God and tremble before the Lord.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within me the city of consciousness rises as the true capital. The defenced city and the palace of strangers are but beliefs that have dressed themselves as powers. When I declare, O Lord, thou art my God, I am naming the reality that God—the I AM within me—is the sole author of my world. The counsels of old, faithfulness and truth, are not external decrees but my unchanging patterns of awareness. The ruin of cities and the disappearance of hostile nations mirror the collapse of old thought that I now revise. As I stand in this truth, the strong are those who glorify this inner order, and the city feared by the nations becomes the consciousness that I have claimed. The kingdom of God is not a distant conquest but a present condition of certainty in my mind. Praise arises from knowing I am not merely witnessing God’s will but inhabiting it, and that my inner state determines every outward form.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, declare Thou art my God and feel the inner city of consciousness restored. Revise any sense of lack until it becomes your immediate, felt reality.
