Neville Goddard on Isaiah 3:18-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 3 in context

Scripture Focus

18In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon,

19The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,

20The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings,

Isaiah 3:18-20

Biblical Context

Isaiah 3:18-20 speaks of the removal of outward ornaments - the jewelry, headbands, and fineries - signifying a shift from display to inner dignity. It points to a purging of wealth as outer sign and the awakening of humility and purity within.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this passage you are invited to see that the day of the Lord is the day your awareness withdraws from external display and centers on the I AM that you are. The brave tinkling of adornments is the ego's music, a habit of boasting that material garb manufactures esteem. When you assume the reality of the inner throne—the I AM wealth, the quiet dignity beneath form—the ornaments dissolve because they were never you. Wealth and provision, then, are not found in bracelets or headbands but in the state of consciousness you inhabit. By choosing to feel as the undivided One, you strip away the need to prove yourself to the world; humility and purity replace vanity, and your inner kingdom shines forth as your true attire.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are the I AM, the aware presence that needs no outward ornament. Revise your self-image to that inner wealth and feel it real now.
