Neville Goddard on Isaiah 37:6-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 37 in context

Scripture Focus

6And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

7Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

Isaiah 37:6-7

Biblical Context

Isaiah 37:6-7 records a message not to fear the words spoken against you. It also proclaims that the enemy will be defeated and return to his own land.

Neville's Inner Vision

Fear is not a fact in the external world, but a vibration felt within your own consciousness. When Isaiah says Be not afraid of the words you have heard, he is directing you to refuse identification with the blasphemous roar of the outer tongue and to anchor your awareness in the I AM. The 'master' you serve is the I AM within, and the LORD's promise of a blast and a rumour is the natural consequence of a state that no longer lends power to fear. As you hold to the conviction that the end is already done in your inner life, the so-called enemy is disarmed, makes a misstep, and returns to his own land. In Neville's teaching, prophecy is the law of consciousness: imagine the result as already present, feel it as real, and the outward event shifts to match the inner scene. Deliverance does not come to you from without; it rises from your assumed identity as the I AM, and the world merely mirrors that inner truth back to you.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit in stillness, declare, 'I am the I AM; Be not afraid,' and then feel the truth as real. Picture the deliverance already accomplished, the fear dissolving, and the imagined foe retreating to its own land.
