Turn to God With All Heart
Joel 2:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Joel 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage calls people to turn to the LORD with their whole heart, using fasting, weeping, and mourning as outward signs of inward repentance.
Neville's Inner Vision
Joel's call is not a ritual to perform at a distance from your true self, but a command to turn your entire awareness toward the I AM that you are. Your heart in Scripture is the seat of consciousness; when it is divided, you live in a split between fear and faith. Fasting, in Neville's practice, is the discipline of withdrawing attachment from outward cravings, so your attention can rest on the divine presence within. Weeping and mourning are not merely expressions of sorrow for a past misstep; they are emotional movements that clear resistance and loosen the binds of belief that you are separate from God. When you permit these inner movements, you awaken to the truth that God is not somewhere distant but the very awareness that experiences. By choosing to imagine you already stand in unity with the I AM, you shift your state of consciousness until your external world mirrors that inner alignment. The turning is therefore an act of conscious reinvention: you revise your sense of self until, in feeling, you are at one with the divine reality you seek.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, place a hand on your heart, and declare: I turn to the I AM within with my whole heart. Now imagine that light expanding from your chest until your entire life is illuminated by it, and hold that felt-reality for a minute.
