Inner Resurrection Through Belief

Luke 8:49-50 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 8 in context

Scripture Focus

49While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
50But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
Luke 8:49-50

Biblical Context

Luke 8:49-50 records news of a child's death arriving as Jesus speaks. Jesus answers, 'Fear not: believe only,' and promises wholeness if belief remains.

Neville's Inner Vision

Death in this reading is a posture of mind, not a tomb. The 'daughter' stands for your living state—health, hope, a future kept alive by your assumption. The messenger who declares she is dead is the voice of appearances, the belief that the I AM you are is limited by time and circumstance. But the Master within, the I AM Jesus embodies, does not argue with appearances; he commands a shift of consciousness: Fear not; believe only. To believe is to accept a present-tense fact in the mind that then fulfills itself in the body. Your inner Jesus speaks as the one consciousness aware of unity, not as a healer arriving from outside. When you refuse to be moved by the report of death and persist in belief, you 'make whole' what is already true in the unseen. This is Neville's psychology: imagine the end, feel the end, and let the end become the visible. Do not seek signs; cultivate the feeling of the wish fulfilled and hold the inner certainty until it outpictures in form. The sign of faith is the night transformed by unwavering belief.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the healed state now; feel the reality of wholeness collapsing the fear. If a doubt arises, repeat the command: Fear not; believe only, and dwell in the sensation of the restoration as already accomplished.
