Neville Goddard on Isaiah 64:1-3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 64 in context

Scripture Focus

1Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,

2As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!

3When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.

Isaiah 64:1-3

Biblical Context

Isaiah envisions God’s coming as a decisive inward event. When presence arrives, the inner mountains yield and purification follows, revealing truth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that heaven and mountains in this vision are not distant landscapes but states of consciousness you inhabit. When you imagine the Lord coming down as the I AM in you, the rigid mountains of fear and limitation begin to yield, flowing down as if moved by your attention. The melting fire you read of is the fire of conviction that dissolves hesitation and makes emotion obedient to purpose; it boils the waters of feeling into a purified stream that serves your stated end. To have thy name known to adversaries is to see your inner critics and old habits named and perceived as nothing within the light of your awakened I AM. The nations trembling before thy presence becomes the effect of your certainty radiating through every relation and situation. The invitation is simple: dwell in the assumption of the presence now, feel it as your own; and watch as the external world rearranges to reflect the truth you have claimed. The whole scene invites a holy seclusion—separate from doubt—until your inner reality becomes outward fact.
