Inner Warfare: The Lord Rebuke Thee
Jude 1:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jude 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Michael the archangel does not rail against the devil over Moses’ body; instead he yields to the Lord’s authority, embodying humility in spiritual contest. The scene shows that true power arises from reliance on the I AM rather than force.
Neville's Inner Vision
Jude 1:9 places Michael in a scene of spiritual warfare, yet Neville would tell you the scene is a state of consciousness. The archangel is not asserting power through railing or charge, but through allegiance to the I AM. The disputed body of Moses stands for a cherished memory or identity you hold sacred; the point is not the claim but the posture: humility, trust, and non-judgment. The devil is not a person but a fear-form within your imagination, a suggestion that you must defend or prove. Michael's restraint—The Lord rebuke thee—is the recognition that ultimate authority rests not in willpower but in the divine order established in your consciousness. When you perceive such inner conflict, you are being invited to revise your sense of self from a defensive ego to a state of grace. The inner law takes over when you stop railing and align with the I AM. In that alignment, the body is not a battleground but a cherished object of realization—your true nature—safeguarded by Providence.
Practice This Now
Assume the stance of Michael within your mind. Visualize the inner brightness between you and the voice of doubt, and softly pronounce The Lord rebuke thee until the sense of conflict dissolves.
