The Inner Sun Stills Time

Joshua 10:12-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Joshua 10 in context

Scripture Focus

12Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.
13And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
14And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel.
15And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
Joshua 10:12-15

Biblical Context

Joshua speaks to the LORD and commands the sun and moon to stand still for Israel to prevail; the celestial movement halts, and God delivers the victory, after which they return to camp.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this passage, the Sun and Moon symbolize the two great powers within your consciousness: will and imagination. When Joshua—your awakened I AM—speaks from the calm, assured heart of awareness, the day’s passage is arrested long enough for your purpose to prevail over limiting appearances. The line about the voice of a man points to a fixed inner decree, not a physical command. The LORD fighting for Israel is the I AM aligning energy with your intention, granting you the strength to overcome inner and outer obstacles. The extraordinary day—no other like it—signals the moment when your state of consciousness is so fully affirmed that time itself yields to the certainty of victory. Returning to camp mirrors returning to ordinary life with the inner victory now established as fact. The practical upshot: cultivate a steady, celebratory assumption of the outcome and permit your inner witnesses to confirm it, until the outer scene conforms.

Practice This Now

Assume the state of victory now; feel the inner sun and moon cooperatively holding time until your goal is realized. Dwell in the felt sense of completion and let the outer scene catch up.
