Sanctify the I AM Within
Isaiah 8:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 8:13 urges you to sanctify the LORD of hosts and let Him be your fear and your dread. It invites a reorientation of fear toward the holy within your own consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the verse, the 'LORD of hosts' is not a distant ruler but the I AM that you already are aware of. To sanctify Him is to consecrate the very act of attention—to set apart your awareness for this divine presence and not surrender it to discord. When you let Him be your fear, you are not surrendering to terror, but yielding to the most intimate governor of your life. Fear dissolves when the sacred within is acknowledged as the first and last reality; the mind rests in the sovereign I AM and all outward conditions rearrange to reflect that consciousness. Remember: imagination is not used to conjure weather-changing signs, but to enforce the truth of being. By dwelling in the sense of 'I AM' as the sole cause, you invite holiness into every moment and allow events to bow to your inner state. The rabble of doubt is quieted by the calm, reverent assurance that God within is the only power here. Practice daily and watch external forms shift to match the inner sanctity you honor.
Practice This Now
Assume the LORD within as your sovereign governor for a few minutes daily; feel the I AM filling your chest and let fear dissolve into reverent stillness.
