Job 12:16-17 Inner Mastery
Job 12:16-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage asserts that true strength and wisdom belong to God, and that both the deceived and the deceiver are under His care; He can frustrate counselors and render judges fools.
Neville's Inner Vision
In your deepest I AM, God is the unwavering source of strength and wisdom. The line that the deceived and the deceiver are His means your awareness understands that all scenes—whether misled minds or manipulative voices—are under the governance of your inner God. Your counsellors and judges are not external authorities but projections of your current state of consciousness. When a scene shows spoiled guidance or foolish judgments, it is a signal to revise your inner state rather than to seek power outside. By affirming that strength and wisdom reside within you, you align with the divine order; you are calling forth discernment and clarity from within. The apparent separation of deceiver and deceived dissolves as you dwell in the I AM and imagine the scene transformed by that presence. You are the governor of your mind; as you assume this truth, the outer world rearranges to reflect your inner alignment with power and truth.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly and declare: I AM the strength and wisdom of God within me. Now revise the scene by seeing my inner counsellors and judges redirected toward clear, compassionate discernment.
