Holding The Way With Clean Hands
Job 17:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse promises steadfast perseverance for the righteous. Purity of conduct is shown as the source of growing strength.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the language of Job, the righteous is the state of consciousness that holds fast to its own awareness. The 'way' you hold is the inner alignment you maintain, not a distant road. 'Clean hands' signify the purity of thought and motive—free from blame, fear, or one-upmanship—so that your feeling is unmixed. When you dwell in that inner state, strength grows not by straining but by consistency: every moment you assume the fulfilled state adds a layer of light to your inner atmosphere. Remember, consciousness creates form; you are the I AM here, now. Your body, your circumstances, your days are all expressions of your inner posture. By choosing to inhabit the sense that the wish is already complete, you effectively hold the way and become stronger by the very act of standing in that fact. Trust the process: the inner state precedes outer strength, and as you persist, you will notice the outward proof follow the inward conviction, growing stronger and stronger.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly and assume the feeling that you already hold the way; declare, 'I AM the righteous I AM, with clean hands, growing stronger now.' Dwell in a vivid, calm image of yourself walking forward with unwavering poise.
