Inner Covenant of Rahab and Spies
Joshua 2:14-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Joshua 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Rahab negotiates a pledge with the spies: she will keep their business secret, and they vow to deal kindly with her once the land is given. She lowers them from the wall and tells them to hide in the mountains for three days before they depart.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this account, the land represents your realized state. The spies are aspects of your higher self surveying the terrain of your mind. When they say, Our life for yours, the I AM answers with allegiance: you choose a new reality and confirm it with inner fidelity. Rahab’s house on the wall and the window cord symbolize how awareness threads a new possibility into your ordinary world, lowering it gently into your life. The wall marks the boundary where fear and promise meet; the cord is energy released by belief. Her instruction to get to the mountain and hide for three days is the inner waiting period, a symbolic pause in action that lets the old pursuit pass and the new arrangement take root. When the pursuers return and you go your way, you witness alignment between inner state and outer circumstance. Practice: assume you are already in possession of the land, treat those around you with kindness as proof of the promised shift, and feel the reality of it now.
Practice This Now
Assume the stance 'I am the land promised' and feel it real now; then picture yourself ascending to a mountain of consciousness and staying there for three breaths.
