Harnessing Inner Fear: Job 39:20
Job 39:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 39 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Job 39:20 questions whether a man can scare a mighty horse, highlighting the creature's terrifying strength and the awe it inspires. It presents the outer majesty and fearsome power that exceed human control.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider the horse as the untamed energy moving within you—the impulse, appetite, and will pressing against circumstance. The nostrils' glory is the breath of life you carry when you awaken to your divine nature. The verse asks whether any man can make this living power afraid, and the implied answer is no when you stand in awareness of the I AM within. Fear arises only as a picture in a state of consciousness, not as a decree from a separate world. The presence of God is not an external force; it is the awareness that you are the I AM, and therefore you possess the power to revise the scene. Holiness means you set your inner state apart from automatic reaction; accountability means you own the belief you have created. Practice: assume the feeling of fearless awareness now—let the inner I AM declare, 'I am unshakable. This grasshopper fear dissolves as I dwell in the divine presence.'
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and declare, 'I am the I AM; fear has no place in this mind.' Then revise the scene by silently affirming the divine presence within until fear dissolves.
