Inner Arise Now: Luke 8:54-56
Luke 8:54-56 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Luke 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jesus raises a girl, restores life, and instructs to provide nourishment; the astonished parents are told to keep silent about the miracle.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture Luke’s scene as a diagram of your own inner life. When the healers and crowd are put outside, the I AM within moves to call forth the arising of a forgotten self; 'Maid, arise' is your attention addressing a sleep-bound state. The word 'spirit' coming back signals your awareness reviving its sense of being—not a miracle happening to a girl, but your consciousness waking to itself. The act of giving her meat is the assurance that life is immediately nourished by the truth you affirm; vitality follows recognition. Notice that the parents’ astonishment mirrors your own sudden welcome of a future you had not consciously entertained. The command to tell no man what is done becomes a gentle reminder: this awakening is for your inner world first, not a spectacle for the outer world. In Neville’s terms, the event is the sensation of a resurrection within—a shift in your state of consciousness from sleep to life, from limitation to abundance, from despair to expectation. Hold this inner scene until it feels unconditional and complete.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, assume the state 'Maid, arise' for yourself—your inner I AM awakening. Feel the revived energy, then imagine it being fed and nourished, and dwell in that nourishment for a minute.
