Neville Goddard on Isaiah 59:12-13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 59 in context

Scripture Focus

12For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;

13In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

Isaiah 59:12-13

Biblical Context

Isaiah 59:12-13 states that our transgressions and sins are evident before God, and we know the iniquities we carry; it also identifies the heart's false speech that arises when we depart from the divine within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the verse invites you into a living psychology: transgressions are not distant acts but states of consciousness you inhabit. Your 'testimony' is the inner evidence you continually rehearse—an ongoing self-dialogue of separation, oppression, and revolt. In Neville's terms, nothing in you is apart from the I AM; when you speak words of falsehood from the heart, you reveal a mind that has aligned with lack rather than reality. The remedy is not punishment but a revision of the self you are choosing to inhabit. Acknowledge the misalignment, then assume the truth of your wholeness in God. Imagine the desired state as already true, feel it in the living present, and let the I AM—the consciousness that you are—wash over your speech and motives. As you dwell in this inner truth, the old testimony of guilt dissolves and a new inner agreement with reality begins to form.

Practice This Now

In a quiet moment, place your hand on your chest and declare inwardly: 'I AM the truth within me now; I revise all false speech into truth.' Visualize a warm light dissolving the memory of past misstatements and affirm your renewed alignment with the I AM.
