Inner Foundation Stone of Faith

Isaiah 28:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 28 in context

Scripture Focus

16Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
Isaiah 28:16

Biblical Context

God announces a foundation stone in Zion—a fixed, treasured base for believers. Those who believe will not hurry when appearances threaten.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture Zion not as a distant place but as the still, inner awareness where I AM, the you and I, stand firm. The stone is not a future event; it is a fixed state of consciousness—tried by time, precious in worth, and sure beyond doubt. When you assent to its reality in this moment, you stop racing after every changing sign. The verse teaches that belief births stability: he that believeth shall not make haste. Thus the work is inner alignment, not outward striving. Banish the notion that life arises from lack; the outer world is but a ripple on the sea of your self-consciousness. If you imagine the foundation as already laid, fear loosens, the heart steadies, and circumstances yield to your inner certainty. By dwelling in this inner stone, you rest in the truth that the I AM has placed a sure cornerstone within you, and life moves forward with quiet momentum rather than anxious haste.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes, revise the outer story, and declare: I am standing on the foundation stone laid within Zion. Feel the solid certainty grounding every thought and calm the body into rest.
