Inner Petition of the I AM

Job 10:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Job 10 in context

Scripture Focus

1My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
Job 10:1-2

Biblical Context

Job laments weariness and resolves to speak openly to God, venting his bitterness. He asks not to be condemned and seeks to know why God contends with him.

Neville's Inner Vision

Job 10:1-2 reveals a soul weighed by life, but the cry is an inward dialogue with the I AM rather than a plea against it. Weariness here signals a held state—an assumption of separation from goodness—that invites a reversal. To speak to God is to converse with your own consciousness; 'Do not condemn me' is the refusal to maintain judgment about your worth, and 'shew me wherefore thou contendest with me' is a request to reveal the inner movement that has been contending with you. Neville teaches that the kingdom of heaven is within and that every outer circumstance mirrors an inner posture. By choosing a revision of the scene—acknowledging your unity with the I AM, relinquishing the need to condemn, and imagining the contending force as a tutor rather than an adversary—you shift the mental weather. When you hold the I AM as your fixed reality, your breath deepens, bitterness dissolves, and the situation realigns to reflect a healed state. The apparent conflict becomes clarity; the inner contest is but a signal you are invited to redeem through faith in your divine nature.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly, assume you are already well and indivisible from the I AM, and repeat, 'I am one with God; I am the I AM within me.' Do this until the feeling of condemnation loosens and a sense of peace takes its place.
