Inner Fire, Divine Presence
Job 41:20-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 41 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The text describes smoke coming from the creature's nostrils, breath that fans embers, and a flame issuing from its mouth.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the scene, the smoke from his nostrils is your hidden belief, a thought-form you hold that life must be heated by struggle. The breath that kindles coals is your spoken conviction, the assumption you permit to do the work of ignition in your affairs. The flame issuing from the mouth is the outward event—the conditions that flash into visibility when your inner image is charged with heat. Neville teaches that the I AM—your essential awareness—is not a distant power but the steady presence by which you imagine. To change the flame, revise the inner image: replace fear with a calm, definite end, and feel it as already real. Sit in quiet, assume the end you desire, and dwell in that feeling until the world begins to reflect the revised state. Then you will witness that what appears as judgment or force is the natural product of your inner state; when you nurture a new image, the outer world lights with a chosen fire rather than a random blaze.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, form an image of your end-state as already yours, and feel it real; softly declare I AM present in that scene until the inner fire aligns with your desired outcome.
