The One Lord Within
Isaiah 26:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 26 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse asserts that other powers once governed our inner life. Now we commit to naming only the Lord, the true ruler.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider this verse as a statement about your inner state. The 'other lords' are not distant tyrants but states of consciousness—fear, limitation, habit—schools in which your attention once nested. By thee only will we make mention of thy name means you choose to name and dwell in the I AM, the one awareness in which all experiences arise. Permit a simple revision: whenever a rival thought asserts itself, do not argue with it; acknowledge it and return your attention to the feeling of being the I AM—the sole ruler within. You are not begging the world to change; you are recognizing the inner sovereignty that already exists. As you persist, the atmosphere of your mind shifts—your inner throne becomes explicit, and life begins to answer to that crown. This is the practical magic: imagine from the end, see yourself reigning from within, and watch the outer events align with the inner certainty.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and dwell in the I AM as the sole ruler. Revise any lingering belief in other lords by silently declaring, 'Only the Lord is named in me,' and feel the throne of inner sovereignty solidify.
