Neville Goddard on Job 39:1-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Job 39 in context

Scripture Focus

1Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?

2Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?

3They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.

4Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.

Job 39:1-4

Biblical Context

The passage questions if one can know the exact season of animal birth, illustrating life’s cycles. Birth, growth, and release move naturally, leaving behind the old state as new life emerges.

Neville's Inner Vision

Job 39 places you before the great clockwork of nature, yet the clock runs in your own I AM. The wild goats and does remind you that creation unfolds by inner seasons, not by chance. Can you mark the months? In Neville's teaching, the months you count are the inner states you inhabit—beliefs, feelings, imaginations—that bring forth form when you insist they are real now. They bow, they give birth, they cast out sorrows; such movements are the movements of your consciousness, not mere beasts. Their young are in good liking and grow up with corn; they go forth and return not unto them: when a new intention ripens, the old lack returns to the invisible, replaced by the visible. The law is simple: know the time of your own fruiting by feeling it as present and complete. Do not chase external conditions; master the inner rhythm and allow creation to respond. The season of your manifested good is the season of your I AM recognizing it.

Practice This Now

Assume the state of your desire already born and breathe as if it is real now. Revise delay by quietly declaring, 'The time of my fruiting is now,' and rest in the rhythm that already exists.
