Neville Goddard on Isaiah 48:7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 48 in context

Scripture Focus

7They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.

Isaiah 48:7

Biblical Context

Verse 48:7 tells us that new insights are created in the present moment, not from the beginning, and that we should not claim we already know them. It speaks of the ongoing birth of understanding within consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your world is not a static record of the past; it is the living act of imagination within the I AM now. The verse says that ‘they’—insights and guidances—are created in this moment, not tucked away from the beginning, so beware the ego’s claim of knowing them. When you assert, ‘I knew them,’ you shut the door to fresh revelation. The true God within you—your I AM—breathes new forms of insight into your awareness as you stand in present perception. Providence is the orderly arising of events within consciousness, not a distant decree. To live by this is to sense that wisdom and truth are not relics but acts of imaginative creation occurring here and now. By choosing to assume that the insight you seek is already created in this moment, you revise your sense of self and invite guidance. Close your eyes, feel the breathing of your awareness, and let the felt truth of the new insight rise as real in your experience.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and silently declare: I now create the insight I seek in this present moment; revise any belief of past possession and feel the truth as real in this moment.
