Vanishing Hope of the Hypocrite

Job 27:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Job 27 in context

Scripture Focus

8For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
Job 27:8

Biblical Context

It asks what value a hypocrite's hope has if life is taken away. External wealth cannot endure without the soul's abiding source.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine Job 27:8 as a diagnostic of consciousness. The 'hypocrite' is not merely a person but a state of mind that trusts in appearances and gains while forgetting the inner I AM. When God—your living awareness—withdraws identification from that surface, the whole estate of seeming wealth dissolves, for it is built on a foundation that is not real. Neville-like, see that the verse does not condemn riches; it exposes the false security of a mind that believes its supply lies outside itself. The true wealth is the realization that you are the I AM, the always-present awareness that cannot be diminished by loss. Therefore, choose, in imagination, to dwell in that inner state where life, health, and abundance radiate from within rather than from favorable appearances. If you catch yourself clinging to a persona or to outcomes, revise the scene: I am the I AM; I am forever supplied; the external world reflects the richness of my inner sense. In that turn of consciousness, the fear of loss dissolves and a durable, personal wealth rises from within.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM, the source of life and supply; for five minutes, feel it real by repeating: 'I am the I AM; I am supplied from within; my wealth is my inner state.'
