Inner City Ruin, Inner Kingdom
Isaiah 25:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 25 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse says a city becomes a heap and a defended city a ruin, and that the palace of strangers will not be rebuilt—signaling that prideful, external structures are not permanent.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this scene, the city is your state of consciousness—the fortress you defend as you. When the text declares a city is made into a heap and a defenced city into ruin, it is not about geography but your inner world. These fortresses and palaces of strangers are beliefs you have guarded by habit, not truth. The line that it shall never be built invites a radical inner revision: stop feeding the old order and let it dissolve. The I AM within you is the architect who does not recreate yesterday's walls but births a new inner metropolis aligned with your true nature. As you yield to this shift, your outer conditions respond, not by battle, but as reflections of the kingdom within that already stands.
Practice This Now
Assume the end by revising your inner state: declare the old fortress is fallen and the city within is renewed by I AM. Feel it real for 5 minutes, letting the sense of new harmony replace doubt.
