Inner Sabbath Blessing Now

Isaiah 56:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 56 in context

Scripture Focus

2Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
Isaiah 56:2

Biblical Context

Blessed is the one who keeps the Sabbath and refrains from evil; it frames blessing as a daily posture of righteous conduct.

Neville's Inner Vision

Blessedness does not come from external compliance but from an inner alignment. The 'man who doeth this' is a state of consciousness that rests in the Sabbath of I AM. To keep the Sabbath from polluting it is to guard your inner atmosphere—refusing to pollute awareness with fear, doubt, or conflicting thoughts. When you lay hold on it, you are not performing a ritual; you are taking possession of your inner world, choosing to act from the agreed upon reality that you are, the I AM that you are. This is the law of imagination: your inner image, sustained with feeling, erects the outer conditions. The 'hand' you keep from doing evil is your weak impulse to react from old beliefs. Instead, enter the stillness, assume that harmony now, and let your thoughts align with a nature of benevolence, justice, and purity. In this inner Sabbath, the entire life is blessed, for you are no longer living in a divided self, but in a singular consciousness that calls everything into harmony.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit in stillness and declare, 'I am the Sabbath kept; I am blessed now,' then feel the rest permeate your being and revise any disturbing thought into harmony.
