Neville Goddard on Isaiah 32:1-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 32 in context

Scripture Focus

1Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.

2And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.

3And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken.

4The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.

Isaiah 32:1-4

Biblical Context

Isaiah 32:1-4 paints a picture of righteous governance that shelters the weary, clears perception, and fosters wise speech and understanding.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Isaiah 32:1-4, you are invited to understand kingship as a state of consciousness rather than a political condition. The king who reigns in righteousness is the I AM ruling in you, aligned with truth, and the princes who judge are your daily judgments, harmonized with inner integrity. When you dwell in this inner sovereignty, a man becomes a hiding place from the wind—a refuge from every gust of fear or circumstance. Rivers of water in a dry place arise as you drink from the well of your own awareness, and the shadow of a great rock offers steadiness in weariness. Your seeing becomes clear and undimmed, your listening attentive to the inner note of truth, and the heart that once rushed forward in impulse now understands knowledge because you have quieted the mind. The tongue of the stammerer speaks plainly because words flow from inner certainty. This is the return of senses to their rightful rule, and the dawn of discernment and confident speech in your life. Now, assume you reign in righteousness and let this inner government reshape your world.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare 'I am the king of my inner kingdom, reigning in righteousness.' Feel the shelter of the rock, the waters of life rising within you, and listen for the clear inner yes that guides your next moment.
