Inner Word Hastens Fulfillment
Jeremiah 1:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 1:12 speaks of the Lord hastening to perform His word; the plain sense is that inner sight confirms the spoken decree and its swift fulfillment.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this verse the Lord is not a distant deity but the I AM within you. “Thou hast well seen” is your conscious recognition that the state you envision has already been grasped by awareness. “For I will hasten my word to perform it” means your inner decree—the word you speak from your deepest self—has no delay in the law of consciousness; it is already moving swiftly toward manifestation. The word is not external syllables but the command issued by your own being, and the universe accelerates by obeying the felt truth you hold. When you live from the end—seeing yourself with the thing desired, feeling it as present—you hasten the word, because imagination and belief travel at the speed of faith. Practice this by assuming the wish is now real and releasing it to the I AM with calm certainty. Providence and guidance emerge as you keep faith with the inner decree until outer conditions align with your inner vision.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and repeat an I AM statement in the present tense that embodies your desired state; then dwell in the felt sense of it as already real for 20–60 seconds, revising any doubt into certainty.
