Neville Goddard on Joshua 2:9-13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 2 in context

Scripture Focus

9And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you.

10For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.

11And as soon as we had heard these things, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.

12Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father's house, and give me a true token:

13And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.

Joshua 2:9-13

Biblical Context

Rahab recognizes that the LORD has given the land and asks for mercy for her family; she hides the spies and seeks a pledge of safety.

Neville's Inner Vision

Rahab’s confession reveals that the land is a state of consciousness and the Lord is the living I AM within. The terror that felled every heart melts when one truly recognizes the power that governs heaven and earth as one awareness. The spies become inner faculties surveying the terrain of the mind, and their report signals a shift from fear to faith as the old self yields to the truth of sovereignty. The true token is the inner commitment that binds your will to divine order, ensuring deliverance begins in your consciousness and then manifests as outer safety. When you dwell in this unity, mercy extends first to your own life and then to what you love most. Fear diminishes, and your world bends to align with the state you accept as real. You are the I AM, and in that recognition the covenant of protection becomes your lived experience.

Practice This Now

Take a minute now and assume I AM is governing your life, feeling safety already real. Visualize a subtle token of deliverance for your household and let that reality soften every fear.
