Elihu's Quiet Claim
Job 36:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 36 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Elihu asks for a moment to speak on God's behalf. The moment signals that true hearing and guidance come after a pause.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this moment, Elihu's request is the exact posture of your inner self. You must suffer the old self slightly, quieting the noise that says you already know everything. The I AM within you yearns to speak through you, to reveal a divine message suited to the now. The word 'God's behalf' is your own higher self; the inner voice that emerges when you assume a state of grace rather than a position of struggle. The inner messenger reminds you that wisdom and truth come not from effort but from a revised conviction: I am one with the source that creates worlds. When you suspend the need to command, you allow the inner 'prophecy' to unfold as practical guidance for your day--your work, your choices, your relationships. The 'suffer me a little' becomes a daily practice: grant yourself a moment of stillness, and let the I AM reveal the next right thought as if it is already done. Thus, you become the prophet of your own life.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit in stillness and say, I am listening to the still inner voice; feel the presence of guidance as real. Then revise a present concern by mentally stepping into the outcome as already true.
