Awaken Your Inner Counsel
Isaiah 47:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 47 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
These verses warn that clinging to enchantments and the multitude of counsels cannot save you. True security comes from within, not external schemes.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the I AM lens, this text is a wake-up call to the mind. Stand now with thine enchantments—the psyche's flirtation with tricks, devices, and external authorities—reveals the habit of seeking security outside the self. The multitude of sorceries is the clutter of mental programs you learned—habits of thought you call 'wisdom' but still feel anxious. The line about astrologers, stargazers, monthly prognosticators stands as a symbol for every forecast you permit to shape your next move. In Neville's language: these are states of consciousness masquerading as reality. The undoing is to stop letting the outside world arbitrate your inner worth. Your imagination, rightly understood, is the sole source of power; the I AM within is the true counselor who never fails. When you stop soliciting external intelligence and align with the feeling 'I am,' you begin to experience the world conforming to your inner decree. The verse invites you to claim sovereignty over your mind and allow your inner vision to create the conditions you seek.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume the role of your inner I AM as the sole counselor; close your eyes and feel the certainty of its guidance, dismissing external voices. Imagine standing firm in that inner decree and watching your outer conditions respond to the felt truth.
