The Inner Messenger Arrives
Malachi 3:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Malachi 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Malachi 3:1 speaks of a messenger who prepares the way, and the Lord whom you seek comes to his temple. The messenger of the covenant signals an inner agreement with God.
Neville's Inner Vision
Malachi invites you to hear the messenger as a state of consciousness you cultivate, not a man at the door. The messenger who prepares the way is your decision to shift attention from lack to the I AM, clearing old stories that block realization. Your temple is the living presence I AM within you, the place where God dwells as awareness. The messenger of the covenant is the steady trust that the covenant with God is kept inside you, a vow you keep by feeling it real until it becomes fact. When you delight in this inner order, the Lord comes into your temple as immediate perception, not distant prophecy. The sudden coming is the moment your awareness recognizes what you have already embodied in imagination. Remember: the outer world answers the inner state; the messenger you await is the ongoing act of imagining and persisting until inner reality takes form in your life. You are the messenger, you are the temple, you are the covenant—and your inner vision unfolds to reveal the world you have imagined.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, breathe, and assume the state you desire—feel it real now, as if the Lord has already entered your inner temple. Stay with the sensation until it is fully present.
