Inner Streams of Trust

Job 6:15-18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Job 6 in context

Scripture Focus

15My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;
16Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid:
17What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
18The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
Job 6:15-18

Biblical Context

Job portrays his brethren as streams that pass away under ice and heat, revealing the instability of outward alliances. What remains is discernment and inner truth.

Neville's Inner Vision

To see this passage through Neville is to hear the truth that all outer relationships are pictures in consciousness, not fixed realities. The deceit your verse calls 'brethren' are not persons but states of mind, streams that seem solid until the ice melts and the snow reveals their emptiness. When you identify with those streams, you are living as a belief in change and lack; but the I AM, your essential awareness, does not flow away. The 'paths of their way' that turn aside are the habitual thoughts that misdirect us toward nothing. The remedy is simple: withdraw belief from the surface and settle into the unwavering witness within. In that quiet, the barrenness of externals is seen as a magnet to turn you toward inner perception, not external conformity. As you revise the assumption, 'these streams are not my reality; I am the I AM,' you awaken to a constancy that cannot be heated away. The moment you acknowledge the inner steadiness, the illusion of deceit dissolves and you stand in the certainty that truth and faithfulness begin with your own consciousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume the I AM as the ever-present stream within. Revise the sense of deceit by declaring, 'I am the witness; I choose truth,' and feel the certainty of inner constancy.
