Inner Hunger Realized Now
Isaiah 9:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 9:20 paints a scene of extreme hunger that drives people to consume what harms themselves. It presents a picture of a society under lack, where nothing satisfies and self-destructive tendencies arise.
Neville's Inner Vision
Recall that in the realm of consciousness, the world you see is not out there but within you. The right hand and left hand snatching after nourishment are your faculties at war with the belief that you are separate from supply. Hunger here is not a stomach ache but the sense of lack that arises when you forget the I AM—the living awareness you truly are. When you identify with lack, you gnaw at your own arm of belief, turning to externals for satisfaction and never tasting fullness. The verse names judgment and exile, yet in Neville's light these are inner states you adopt by assumption. To awaken, refuse the famine thoughts and assume the sensation of fullness as your natural state. The inner kingdom is a consciousness that supplies itself; you are not the hunger, you are the I AM that provides the feast. By dwelling in the feeling of abundance and living from that awareness, the imagined hunger dissolves and healing is ready to appear in your experience.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, I AM the I AM, fullness is mine now. Revise the scene by imagining the feast of awareness pouring into you, and feel the fullness saturating your chest.
