Inner Seed of Blessed Labor

Isaiah 65:22-23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 65 in context

Scripture Focus

22They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
23They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
Isaiah 65:22-23

Biblical Context

God’s promise is that his people will enjoy the fruit of their own labor, enduring like a tree. They will not labour in vain, and their offspring share in the LORD's blessing.

Neville's Inner Vision

Isaiah speaks to the state of consciousness. When you believe you shall not labor in vain, you are not hoping for a future reward you can earn by more effort; you are choosing the I AM as your only doer, the inner governor of all events. The words 'as the days of a tree' describe your inner condition: a rooted, enduring presence whose fruit comes in due season because your inner climate has become faithful. The elect 'shall long enjoy the work of their hands' is the soul's assertion that the activity of your mind—your imaginings, decisions, and acts—can be sustained and fruitful, not exhausted by struggle. The negation 'they shall not labour in vain' points to releasing reliance on external praise or recompense; the proper labor occurs in your inner turning toward blessing. The seed of the LORD in you multiplies; your offspring with them are the ideas and outcomes that accompany your state of consciousness. Providence is the natural outworking of your inner alignment with abundance, not mere luck. Rest in this covenant, and your next deed arises as its expression.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit quietly and imagine a sturdy tree in your inner landscape, its branches bearing fruit in every season; feel yourself as the I AM behind the growth and declare, 'I am the seed of the blessed of the LORD; my labor bears lasting fruit.'
