Read Isaiah 48 in context

Scripture Focus

14All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.

15I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.

16Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

17Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember, these words are your inner life speaking. When I say assemble yourselves, I mean gather your attention to the I AM within. The Babylon and the Chaldeans are the dream states you have allowed as bondage; the Lord’s arm upon them is the motion of God in you when you align with the divine purpose. The declaration I have spoken, I have called him, I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous — this is the inner voice I have awakened in you, promising a prosperous path when you listen. Your higher self has spoken your good into being and will lead you along the way that profits you through inspired imagination and faithful action. Come near and hear this; I am not distant. The Holy One of Israel is your own sacred imagination; God teaches you to profit by revealing the images and feelings that guide your next step. Trust this inner teacher, and the path opens as you obey its quiet motion.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and assume I am led by the I AM within. Visualize the next right step and feel the certainty of inner guidance as you revise any doubt to align with it.
