Inner Line of Divine Judgment
Isaiah 28:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 28 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse speaks of a divine measurement that exposes lies and reveals truth by line and plummet. It points to accountability, righteousness, and the removal of misleading refuges.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine God as the I AM within you, calibrating your consciousness with line and plummet. The line is the inner boundary you accept in thought; the plummet is the steady standard by which you test every belief against truth. When you consent to this inner judgment, the hail arrives as a cleansing energy that sweeps away every refuge of lies you have held in the mind, even the subtle stories you call safety. The waters then overflow the hiding places, not as punishment, but as revelation: what you hid from yourself is washed into view by your own awareness. This is not fearsome punishment but the natural operation of consciousness aligning with righteousness. Practice invites you to assume you are the I AM, that you already stand in the line and the plummet, and that truth is the fabric of your being. Feel it as real now, revise any belief that contradicts this, and let the old self dissolve into a clearer, brighter presence.
Practice This Now
Assume right now that you are the line and the plummet of truth. Silently revise one lingering false belief by declaring, 'I am the truth I seek.' Then feel the shift as the refuge of lies dissolves and your true nature becomes clearly present.
