Neville Goddard on Job 40:6-9 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Job 40 in context

Scripture Focus

6Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

7Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

8Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

9Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?

Job 40:6-9

Biblical Context

God speaks to Job from the whirlwind, challenging his judgments and reminding him of the limits of human power. The moment invites inner discipline and a shift from ego to awareness.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the hushed inner room, Job's complaint becomes your own when you forget who you are that you may be righteous by wisdom alone. The whirlwind is the storm of limited thought; the voice that answers is the I AM, the indwelling God you are aware as. When God asks, 'Wilt thou disannul my judgment?' He is asking you to examine the habit of condemning outcomes as if they could outrun your inner law. You do not argue or win against the universe; you awaken to the truth that your life is a dream of the I AM, and imagination is the power that makes it real. You cannot out-thunder the I AM, you can only align with it. So gird up your loins not with fear, but with the awareness that you are the one who proposes the scene, the one who co-creates by consent. In this light, Job's trial becomes a door to the realization that you are the source of judgment and power alike; let the inner God speak through you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and declare, 'I AM the I AM.' Revise a current limitation by affirming, 'This belief cannot govern me; the power within me now makes a new scene.' Feel it real by letting that conviction glow in your chest.
