Worship Beyond Power
Luke 4:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Luke 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Verse 4:7 presents the tempter offering worldly dominion in exchange for worship, signaling a choice between bowing to an external power and honoring the inner state of consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Luke 4:7 is not a history lesson but a map of inner choices. The ‘me’ that asks you to worship it is not a king standing outside but the egoic self-image that seeks power through submission to something other than the I AM. When you hear, 'All shall be thine,' understand that this is the law of consciousness: whatever you assent to in imagination becomes your experience. If you bow to the illusion of a separate lord, you hand over your sovereignty and invite the climate of scarcity and striving. True worship, in Neville's sense, is not service to an external deity but fidelity to the I AM within—your permanent, abiding reality. When you assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled from that inner station, you activate the kingdom inwardly, and the outer world rearranges to reflect it. Power, wealth, and presence are not granted for worshiping a statue but awakened by the inner posture of consciousness. So stand fast in the awareness that you are that I AM, and let the inner worship produce the outer abundance without bowing to any idol.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling of the I AM within: declare, 'I am one with God; all power and wealth are already mine.' Feel that truth until it glows in your body and radiates into your surroundings.
