Neville Goddard on Isaiah 63:10-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 63 in context

Scripture Focus

10But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.

11Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?

12That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

13That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?

14As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

Isaiah 63:10-14

Biblical Context

These verses show Israel rebelling against the Holy Spirit and God becoming their enemy. They also recall how the Spirit led them, made them rest, and guided them through the sea and wilderness to a lasting name.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you the Holy Spirit is your inner state of awareness—the I AM you are. When you feel tempted to rebel or resist, you are only forgetting the flow of life that already carries you. The memory of the old deliverances—Moses the shepherd, and the Spirit within—reminds you that design and direction belong to your consciousness here and now. The Spirit leads by your right hand; your attention parts the waters of limitation, not as distant history but as what you are actively doing with your mind. Through the deep you are led, like a horse in the wilderness, so you do not stumble. The Spirit causes you to rest in the valley, and thereby you are drawn to a glorious Name—the recognition that God’s living presence is your ongoing activity. If you assume this presence as yours, the old drama of separation dissolves, and you awaken to a seamless procession of life, purpose, and rest.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, breathe, and revise: 'I am the Spirit of the Lord within me; I rest now, and I am led through every depth by the I AM.' Then dwell in the felt sense of being led, watching as your inner sea parts and rest becomes your true state.
