Job 16 Inner Witness
Job 16:18-22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Job laments that his blood cries out and the earth seems to hide them, while his cry finds no place. He declares his witness is in heaven, and longs for a human mediator to plead with God.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your mind is Job’s stage, and the cry you hear is the vibration of your own state. When Job says earth cover not my blood, he speaks of a state that would hide the inner act of life from sight. Yet his witness is in heaven, and a record is on high—meaning your I AM, the aware self, holds every movement of feeling in a living ledger. Tears pour from your eye, not in punishment, but in the honest release of a belief that needs revision. The longing for someone to plead with God is but your ego wanting a lawyer; Neville would say you are both plaintiff and advocate, and the divine verdict rests in your own awareness. Therefore choose a new assumption: that your present cry is already heard by the witnessing I AM, that your record is sealed with love, and that the path you must take is the way of a revived consciousness. In a few moments you step out of the old frame, returning to the road whence you shall not return, carrying the conviction that God is within you, always listening.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Sit in quiet with eyes closed; in your own words, assume the state described: 'My witness is in heaven; I am heard.' Feel the reality of that assumption becoming present as you breathe and relax into the I AM.
