Inner Healing Isaiah 53:5
Isaiah 53:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 53 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage speaks of a suffering figure whose wounds atone for our wrongs. Through his chastisement, our peace is established and healing flows.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's doorway, the words become a map to your inner life. The 'he' who is wounded stands for your I AM self, the awakeness behind every thought. Your transgressions and iniquities are not external crimes but mistaken identifications—believing you are separate from the whole. The bruising and stripes symbolize the inner discipline by which your mind is drawn into alignment with the truth: peace is already yours. The 'chastisement of our peace' is the gentle correction of consciousness, not a punishment from outside; it is the inner training that converts fear into faith, confusion into understanding. When you learn to interpret the scene as a drama within you, the healing arises as you accept that the wound has served its purpose in waking you to your oneness with God, the I AM that you are. Imagination creates reality; the healing you seek is the healing you imagine and feel as REAL. Your body responds to the inner state you hold about yourself. The verse invites you to dwell in your divine identity and allow peace to replace pain.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, rest your hand on your heart, and revise the scene: 'I am healed now; the I AM within is my peace.' Feel the body softening as you hold the sensation of wholeness, and let that feeling remain as the reality you inhabit.
