Inner Treasures, Outer Babylon

Isaiah 39:3-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 39 in context

Scripture Focus

3Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.
4Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
Isaiah 39:3-4

Biblical Context

Isaiah questions Hezekiah about what the envoys from Babylon have seen in his house; Hezekiah says everything in his treasures has been shown, exposing the outward wealth to the world.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the inner-vision of Neville Goddard, the Babylonian envoys are not distant strangers but the world’s opinions pressing upon your awareness. Hezekiah’s boast that all his treasures were shown reveals a state of consciousness tethered to external measures of value. In Neville’s terms, wealth is a function of inner states, not mere gold and chests. When you parade your riches before the world, you invite the outer into your inner sanctuary and grant it power over your sense of security. The remedy is to shift allegiance from visible property to the I AM within, the stable source of all supply. See the inner chamber as the true treasury, where abundance is already present and waiting to express. The verse invites a quiet revision: instead of showing outward wealth to the world, rest in the knowing that the I AM provides. When you assume you are already abundant in consciousness, the so-called envoys fade to harmless memory and provision flows from a settled, inner nature.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and affirm, 'I AM the source of all wealth within me.' Visualize a gentle glow of inner provision expanding until you feel it as real now.
