Inner Hearing and Delusion
Isaiah 66:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 66 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
When God calls, some do not answer or hear, and they end up choosing delusion and fear that God dislikes. This points to the inner choice behind outward events: your focus and beliefs determine your reality.
Neville's Inner Vision
Take the verse as a mirror of your inner state. God is the I AM that attends to your thoughts; the 'calling' is the discernible impulse toward alignment. If you ignore it, you domesticate delusions and fears, and your inner world runs on stories you do not delight in—stories that mirror separation from your true self. The verse says you chose what I delight not, meaning you chose beliefs and actions out of harmony with the divine nature you already possess. In Neville’s method, your reality is a state of consciousness; what you persist in imagining becomes actual. So the fear and delusion are not punishment but a signal to revise. You are free to turn toward the call now, to assume you have heard and will obey, and to feel it as real. Feel it-real that you hear the inner voice, respond with trust, and let the outer circumstances fall into line with that choice. The moment you revise to alignment, the external scenes shift to resemble the inner state.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, say, 'I hear and answer the inner call now,' and feel the reality of immediate obedience. Then imagine a moment in your day where you act on that inner guidance.
