Inner Boundaries of the Kingdom

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard’s lens, Joshua’s coastlines are not about land but about states of awareness. Ephraim and Manasseh stand for two aspects of yourself that reach toward the sea of life, each with a limit drawn by a higher order you call the Covenant. When the coast descends to the river Kanah, you are shown how attention travels along the edge of your present self-image, tracing the boundary you have accepted as your territory. The northward and southward portions reveal the tension and balance of opposite impulses within you, while the sea as border speaks of the vast, unconditioned consciousness that still marks its own boundary from within. Yet the true message is Providence: the borders are not arbitrary; they are placed so that the whole kingdom can be governed by one sovereign I AM. When your inner faculties meet at the right place—Asher on the north, Issachar on the east—there is the felt unity of purpose, and your life begins to reflect a single, ordered dominion. In short, declare that you are the kingdom and the boundary, and permit the state you desire to unfold from within.
