Neville Goddard on Isaiah 35:4-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 35 in context

Scripture Focus

4Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.

5Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.

6Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.

Isaiah 35:4-6

Biblical Context

It speaks to fearful hearts, urging them to be strong because God will come to save. It promises healing and restoration—opening sight and hearing, freeing movement, and bringing waters into the wilderness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the God of Isaiah not as a distant savior, but the I AM within you—the steadfast awareness that you are. When the verse says, 'be strong, fear not,' it is a command to your mind to assume a new state. Your inner God comes with recompense, a justice of your present state, not a future conquest; salvation is the natural result of dwelling in that awareness. As you occupy this state, inner perception awakens: the eyes of the blind open to truth, the ears of the deaf unstopped by belief, the lame mind leaps with renewed vigor, and the tongue of the dumb sings in gratitude. The wilderness yields waters and streams because your consciousness has shifted from lack to abundance. Salvation, therefore, is not coming to you; it is awakening within you here and now, through the act of assuming, feeling, and remaining in the I AM.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and silently declare, I AM that I AM; feel the strong, fearless presence within. In imagination, see yourself seeing clearly, hearing perfectly, moving with grace, and waters breaking in a barren place—then rest in that realized state.
