Face of God, Soul's Deliverance
Job 33:26-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 33 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
In these verses, the speaker describes turning to God in prayer, gaining favor, and seeing the divine face with joy as the result of righteousness. It promises deliverance from the pit and light returning to life.
Neville's Inner Vision
Job 33:26-28 speaks to the inner scene, where prayer is the act of turning the attention to the I AM within. When you pray as an inner believer, you are not pleading as a distant worshipper but assuming your divine state—Favored, seen, and righteous. The phrase 'he shall see his face with joy' is a symbol of waking to the recognition that God’s face is your own awareness shining back on you. If you say, 'I have sinned,' you momentarily contract your consciousness, and the profit of that belief fades, for you have forgotten your true nature. God looks upon men with a patient, transforming gaze whenever you revise the self-accusation and align with righteousness as an inner state. Deliverance from the pit is the liberation from limiting thoughts, not a change of geography. When your life is thus lit by the inner light, your days see the truth you already are: the light of life, the return of ease, and the authentic joy of being. This is the mechanism by which salvation unfolds within you, here and now.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume you are already favored by God; close your eyes, feel the I AM's warm gaze, and let joy rise. If guilt surfaces, revise quietly: 'I have been forgiven; I choose the light.'
