Inner Doorways of Prayer
Luke 11:5-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Luke 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jesus teaches that persistent prayer leads to provision: ask, seek, and knock, and you will receive, find, and have doors opened; the Father gives the Holy Spirit to those who ask.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, the scene is not about a neighbor's door but about the inner door of your own consciousness. The midnight knock is your insistence of imagination, the bread you seek is the quality of awareness you now assume. The closed door and the complaint of the father inside reveal that your present sense of self may appear empty, but importunity is not noise; it is the unwavering lit state of 'I AM' that will not release the wish until it feels true. When you say, 'Ask, and it shall be given,' you are not bargaining with fate but awakening to the fact that you already are the state that receives. The Father, the Holy Spirit, is your inner life-power: fully present, ready to drop into form the fullness of your desire as you hold the state of it. The standard 'evil' is irrelevant; what matters is your capacity to maintain the feeling that the wish is already fulfilled. Persist in the assumption until the outer world hums in harmony; you will see the outer event align with your inner realization.
Practice This Now
Tonight, sit quietly, close your eyes, and assume you already possess the bread you seek. Feel the gratitude as if it is real and let that feeling linger until the outer scene harmonizes.
