Neville Goddard on Isaiah 42:6-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 42 in context

Scripture Focus

6I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

7To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

Isaiah 42:6-7

Biblical Context

God declares He will call you in righteousness, hold your hand, and keep you, making you a covenant and a light for others. Inner darkness is dissolved as your sight is opened and liberation comes to those bound by illusion.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the I AM speaks now: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness; I am holding thy hand; I will keep thee; I give thee for a covenant of the people, a light to the Gentiles. This is not history but your present state of consciousness. The so-called mission is the inner realization that you are that light and that covenant in action. When you understand this, awareness opens the eyes that were blind to your own divine perception; the 'prisoners' and the 'darkness' are the beliefs and fears keeping your true sight under lock. As you dwell in this assurance, your inner light asserts itself outwardly: you radiate guidance, freeing others from limiting beliefs by your example, becoming a witness whose very presence liberates. The world you see reflects your inward state; claim it now: you are the one called, held, protected, and given to illuminate.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are held by the I AM; feel the guiding hand. Picture yourself as the covenant and the light, opening inner eyes and freeing inner prisoners.
