Desert Bloom: The Inner Way
Isaiah 35:1-10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 35 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The wilderness becomes glad, and the desert rejoices as God comes to save. It speaks of healing, restoration, and a return to Zion.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's lens, the wilderness you read of is not a distant landscape but the state of consciousness you tend with your attention. The verse’s promise that your God will come and save you is the simple assertion that your I AM presence answers the call you make in imagination. When the desert blossoms, it is your mind awakening to its own divinity, turning lack into provision, drought into source. The opened eyes and unstopped ears symbolize the clearing of limiting beliefs; the leap of the hearted lame stands for the release of old habits and identifications that no longer serve your inner totality. The highway of holiness is the alignment of your attention with the One Life that animates all; it is a disciplined focusing of awareness so that only the true, blessed state remains apparent. Fear, the lionish doubt, and all ravenous beasts cannot walk there because you have consecrated this inner road. The redeemed return to Zion with songs—your inner peace manifesting as outer experience—and everlasting joy becomes your present condition as you stop doubting and declare I am that I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the I AM is present now. Feel the inner desert begin to blossom; then picture stepping onto the Way of Holiness and align your life with that conviction.
