Earth as Witness to My Cry
Job 16:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Job appeals to the earth not to cover his blood or silence his cry, signaling a demand for acknowledgment of his life and suffering.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville perspective, the cry is not a mere outward complaint but a claim of consciousness. The earth in this verse represents the outer screen that we project upon, and the appeal is to awaken a certainty within that the life you are is not to be buried beneath circumstance. The blood is the living testimony of your being; its 'cry' is the feeling of isolation that arises when your true state is thought to be unseen. In truth, the cry only seems to go unheard because you have forgotten that you are the I AM, the one who notices and sustains. When you assume that your experience is seen by the larger earth of your mind—by your own aware presence—you release the sense of being silenced. The verse invites you to revise the idea that space between you and acknowledgment exists; rather, the breath of your awareness becomes the ground that lets your blood speak and your cry be received. Practice is the shift: assume the state where you are heard, feel it as real, and let the world reflect that inner verdict.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and declare to the inner witness, 'Earth, I am heard; my blood speaks, my cry is received.' Then feel the reality of that acknowledgment as present now.
