Inner Security Isaiah 31:1-2
Isaiah 31:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 31 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse condemns seeking help from Egypt and trusting outward armies, while urging attention to the Holy One of Israel. It also asserts that God will judge evildoers and oppose false security.
Neville's Inner Vision
The text invites you to notice that Egypt and chariots are not distant threats but habits of mind: dependency on circumstance, power, and social validation. When you orient your safety to outer forces, you turn away from the Holy One of Israel—the I AM within you. In the Neville mode, true strength is not conferred by armies but awakened in consciousness. God’s word remains steadfast, not to threaten but to awaken you to your real resource. The 'evildoers' you imagine are simply those patterns that forget God within, and the help you seek outside vanishes as you fix your inner sight on the Holy One. This is repentance as redesigning perception: shift from fear to faith, from external aid to inner knowing, until the feeling of safety arises from inside you, and your life moves in harmony with the divine presence that you are.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Close your eyes and assume the Holy One is your only power; feel the I AM as your constant companion. Then declare, silently or aloud, 'I seek the Lord first; my safety is consciousness' and let that feeling-real settle through your body.
