Mercy Through Inner Renewal
Isaiah 55:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 55 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 55:7 invites the inner self to abandon old ways and thoughts and return to the LORD, where mercy and abundant pardon await.
Neville's Inner Vision
Neville’s reading sees 'wicked' and 'unrighteous' not as outsiders but as states of consciousness you have accepted as real. To forsake them is to withdraw your identification from those thoughts and align with the I AM that dwells within you. The 'return to the LORD' is a return to awareness—the single, indivisible presence and power of God inside you. When you acknowledge that mercy and abundant pardon are not earned from above but are the natural response of consciousness to its own renewal, you open the door to immediate change. Your inner God forgives not because you deserve it, but because you choose to live in the truth that you are always in right relationship with your own I AM. The more you dwell in the consciousness of forgiveness, the more the old patterns dissolve. You are not seeking mercy from a distant deity; you are returning to the awareness that you are the author and possessor of your reality, here now, in the unity of God within.
Practice This Now
Assume the wish fulfilled: you have already returned to the LORD; feel the old thoughts melt away and rest in the mercy that is your natural state. Sit in quiet and softly repeat, 'I am forgiven; I am restored; I am at peace' until the feeling of pardon becomes real.
