Inner Echoes of Job
Job 18:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Job 18:21 speaks of the wicked dwelling in a place defined by not knowing God. In Neville's lens, this is a state of consciousness separated from the I AM.
Neville's Inner Vision
The verse names a condition, but you and I know the condition as a moment in mind. The 'dwellings' are inner dispositions, not distant lands, where awareness of God recedes. To know God is to know the I AM as your own awareness; when you cling to fear, resentment, or pride, you erect a wall between you and the living Presence. Your exterior life becomes a theater reflecting an inner exile, a sense of distance from the divine order. Yet exile is not judgment but a invitation to return to consciousness. By assuming you are God-aware, you reverse the drift; you awaken from the belief that you are apart. The place of the ignorant becomes a doorway back to unity, washed by the certainty that I AM is within you now. The righteousness you seek is the alignment of thought, feeling, and imagination with the truth that God is present in every breath and moment.
Practice This Now
Assume for a moment that you are already in the presence of God; silently affirm I AM within me now and feel the warmth of that awareness filling your chest as you breathe.
