Inner Justice in Job 31:13-14
Job 31:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 31 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Job 31:13-14 cautions against despising the cause of one’s servant and asks what one would say when God rises to inquire. It invites inner accountability, showing that how you treat the vulnerable reflects your alignment with divine justice.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the I AM, despising another’s cause is despising a facet of your own consciousness, a hidden helper you have denied. When God rises up, the inner judge awakens, and the question becomes: what is your relation to the ones who labor for you? The servant is a mirror for your willingness to honor the dignity of all—every demand for fairness, every right acknowledged, is a movement of inner alignment. The day of God is not threat but translation of awareness into lived justice: you revise the posture of control, you assume the truth that God dwells in the helper as much as in the master. If you are willing to meet that inner standard, your thoughts, feelings, and outer world harmonize with the consciousness that you and your neighbor are one. The moment you accept this, your memory of past judgments dissolves, replaced by a steady seeing of God in service and a calm acceptance of responsibility for every action.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly and imagine you already treat every helper with fairness and dignity. Feel the truth of I AM recognizing God in the servant, and revise any past resentment by softly declaring, 'From this day, I honor all; I am one with the helper.'
