James 1:6-8 Inner Faith Practice
James 1:6-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read James 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
James 1:6-8 instructs to ask in faith without wavering, for doubt turns the mind like a sea wave and a double-minded person remains unstable in all ways.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within James you meet the I AM again and again as the sole witness to your petition. To ask with wavering is to invite a storm of conflicting images into the chamber of your consciousness; the mind becomes a sea tossed by gusts, and no true permission is given to the unseen to respond. The I AM your inner God does not bargain with two suns in the sky. When you fix your attention on one consecrated image and dwell there in feeling, you align your entire being with the realization you desire. The phrase 'double-minded' is not a condemnation of your history but a description of a split state of consciousness: you claim a thing, then retreat in fear, letting doubt dilute the electric current of your desire. Your duty is to maintain the single, inner conviction that the thing is already true in your consciousness. In that moment of steady faith, you become the channel through which the unseen moves, and your circumstance must reflect the stable image you hold.
Practice This Now
Practice: Sit quietly, feel the wish fulfilled now, and declare I AM the observer of this reality, knowing it is done.
