Neville Goddard on Job 14:13-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Job 14 in context

Scripture Focus

13O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

14If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

Job 14:13-14

Biblical Context

Job longs to be hidden in the grave until wrath passes and wonders if the dead shall live again. He resolves to wait for his change at the appointed time.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, in your inner world the grave stands for the old self, a state of fear and limitation. The wrath is the intense energy of a mind clinging to separation, and the set time is not a calendar but a moment you choose to awaken to a new state of awareness. When Job asks if a man die, shall he live again, he voices a universal hunger for renewal that you can meet by assuming the new life now. In the I AM, you are already present in the life you seek; you are remembered by the divine that you are. To revive is not a distant event but a shift in consciousness, a birth in mind where the old dream dissolves and the new becomes your reality. Your change is the conviction that you are alive in a form that no longer reflects fear, but the light of your true being. When you dwell in that truth, your outer circumstances will follow suit, revealing a living resurrection here and now.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit quietly and assume the change as already real. Feel the I AM supporting you, and dwell in that new life until it becomes your experience.
