Neville Goddard on Isaiah 64:2-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 64 in context

Scripture Focus

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.

4For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

Isaiah 64:2-4

Biblical Context

Isaiah 64:2-4 describes God's dramatic presence moving in power, melting obstacles and revealing a future prepared for those who wait. In plain terms, it speaks of awakening to the inner presence that dissolves outer appearances.

Neville's Inner Vision

All the drama of Isaiah is not history to you, but a description of inner law. The melting fire is your changing conviction; the boiling waters are the emotions that held you in a fixed pattern; the mountains flowing away are the obstacles you believed stood between you and your good. When you know the I AM as your essential self—your awareness that feels, perceives, and completes—God's presence becomes tangible here and now. What is prepared for you is not distant; it is the fruit of your own consciousness brought forth when you wait with simple, unwavering faith and refuse to identify with the old picture. The 'terrible things' are not external catastrophes but the dissolving forms of limitation, dissolving as you rest in the truth that you are one with this eternal activity. Thus your inner landscape changes, and outer scenes follow—curtains drawn back to reveal the abundant life already prepared for the waiting heart.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the I AM is descending into your consciousness now. Feel the inner fire dissolving the old walls and rest in the certainty that your waiting is complete.
