Birth of Deliverance Within

Isaiah 26:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 26 in context

Scripture Focus

18We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
Isaiah 26:18

Biblical Context

Isaiah 26:18 describes labor and birth that yield no deliverance. It signals that human effort alone cannot redeem the earth or its inhabitants.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville’s reading, the verse reveals a state of consciousness rather than a historical event. The birth pangs you feel are not the moment of redemption, but the old energy of striving that cannot deliver because deliverance must be conceived from the I AM within. 'We have been with child' names the future condition you carry in mind but have not yet incarnated in awareness. 'We have not wrought any deliverance in the earth' shows that external acts or worldly structures cannot produce the end you seek unless your inner state bears it. The practice is to reverse this: become the assumption that the end is already accomplished in you. When you imagine the desired state as present-tense, you are not coercing God but declaring your true identity as the I AM—the living source of all vitality. The world you see answers to the consciousness you awaken. By holding the feeling of delivery, you align with grace and favor, and the outer scene begins to reflect that inner birth.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and declare, 'I am delivered now.' Feel the relief as if the end is already done, and revise any lingering lack by repeating until it feels true.
