Inner Fig Remedy for Healing
Isaiah 38:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 38 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse describes using a lump of figs as a plaster on a boil, promising recovery.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your true healing is not a return to a past condition in the body, but a shift in consciousness. The figure of the lump of figs is a symbol: you place a felt impression on the inflammatory image of lack and limitation, just as oil plaster is laid on a boil. In this moment, the I AM, the aware Self, does the work, not the physical remedy. When you accept Isaiah's word as a statement about your inner state, you align with the healing that is already complete in God, and your body follows. The plaster is the steady, patient belief that health is your natural state; the boil is the fever of fear or pain in your consciousness. The act is inward: imagine the figs as a symbol of healing belief, and feel the recovery as now, in present tense, as you are whole. Trust that recovery is already true in your inner sight, and let your outer condition follow the inner conviction.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling of health as if it is already present; imagine a lump of figs laid gently on the boil, representing your fixed belief in wholeness, and dwell in that sensation until it becomes real.
