Inner River of Guidance

Isaiah 48:17-19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 48 in context

Scripture Focus

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.
18O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
Isaiah 48:17-19

Biblical Context

God declares He teaches you to profit and guides you on the right path; when you heed His commandments, peace flows like a river and righteousness grows like waves.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember, the Lord here is the I AM within you, the governing awareness that teaches you to profit by turning every moment into a useful inner choice. 'I lead thee by the way that thou shouldest go' is an inward navigation, not a distant command. When you accept this inner direction as real, peace flows as a river—unbroken, refreshing, and inexhaustible—because you stop arguing with your own possibility. Righteousness becomes like waves of the sea, moving with the tides of right assumption. The reference to seed and offspring is your present state shaping future experiences; the most tangible results emerge from the thoughts you cherish and the feelings you permit. If you disregard the inner command, your life resembles sand shifted by doubt; if you heed it, the life you hoped for remains intact before the I AM. You are not pleading for blessings; you are waking to the fact that you already are the blessed state and God’s word within you confirms it.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are guided by the I AM within you. Feel the river of peace flowing through your days as you revise any doubt into quiet trust.
