Return to God Through Imagination
Isaiah 59:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 59 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 59:2 presents separation from God as the consequence of iniquities, signaling an inner barrier rather than a distant punishment. The remedy is a turning of consciousness toward the I AM, reuniting with the divine.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's sense, you are never truly separated from God; separation is a habit of consciousness you have rehearsed until it feels real. Your 'God' is the I AM that you already are, and the barrier described in Isaiah 59:2 is a signal to revise. When you believe you are distant, you block the voice that already loves you and hears you. The instruction of the verse becomes an invitation to an inner act: to assume union as present, to feel the presence now, and to dwell in the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Imagination is the creative law; by presuming wholeness, you dissolve the sense of sin as distance, and life rearranges to match that inner reality. The frequency of forgiveness, turning, and acceptance restores communion, not by changing external facts, but by changing the state of consciousness that gives rise to them.
Practice This Now
Practice: quiet your mind, acknowledge the I AM as present, and revise the sense of separation by declaring, 'I am one with God now,' then feel the peace and hearing return as the inner reality shifts.
