Neville Goddard on Joshua 2:18 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 2 in context

Scripture Focus

18Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee.

Joshua 2:18

Biblical Context

Rahab is instructed to display a scarlet cord in her window so that, when Israel enters the land, she and her family will be saved and brought into her home.

Neville's Inner Vision

Joshua 2:18 is not a history lesson but a map of inner states. The window Rahab marks is your boundary of awareness, and the scarlet line is a conscious commitment to a new possibility. In Neville’s terms, the I AM within you is the guard who recognizes and accepts your promised land, and the cord is the vivid symbol you use to seal your intention. The act of binding the cord echoes the decision to stay loyal to the imagined end as if it were already true. When the spies say her family shall be brought home, they demonstrate that salvation comes from an inner yes—an unwavering belief that the end is complete in mind and must express itself in form. The land you enter is the state of consciousness you inhabit; the thread is the sign that you have not wavered. So, attend to your inner sign, dwell in the feeling of the fulfilled state, and let the outer scene adjust to your inner covenant.

Practice This Now

Take a moment now to imagine a scarlet thread in your window as a sign that your desired state is secured. Feel the I AM within confirming it, and dwell in gratitude as if the end is already true.
