Neville Goddard on Isaiah 44:26 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 44 in context

Scripture Focus

26That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:

Isaiah 44:26

Biblical Context

God confirms the words of His servant and carries out the counsel of His messengers, promising restoration for Jerusalem and Judah. It is a promise of renewal that begins within the heart's inner city.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the Isaiah verse you are invited to know that the God of your I AM has already approved the thought you entertained. The 'word of His servant' is the living idea you nourished in imagination; the 'counsel of His messengers' is the quiet, unwavering inner voice that supports it. When you refuse to accept limitation and align with the consciousness that there is no separation between you and the divine plan, Jerusalem—the state of peace in your mind—becomes inhabited. The cities of Judah—your faculties of discernment, courage, and love—are built by the same undeniable act: the inner decree confirmed and made real. The decayed places are not shed in anger but revived by the consistent feeling that what is promised to you by this inner word is already true. You do not seek permission; you awaken to it. The external realm will reflect the inner architecture as you rest in the I AM that never fails.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: In a quiet moment, assume you are already inhabiting Jerusalem; feel the streets of your inner city as rebuilt; let the sense of renewal settle in your chest for five breaths.
