Stout Words Within Inner Speak

Malachi 3:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Malachi 3 in context

Scripture Focus

13Your words have been stout against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, What have we spoken so much against thee?
Malachi 3:13

Biblical Context

Malachi 3:13 shows people insisting they have not spoken against the LORD, while their very words reveal a stubborn inner resistance. It points to the inward posture behind outward accusation.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your words 'against me' are not spoken to a distant deity but to the I AM that you are. Malachi presents a belief state: you call your inner dialogue 'against' the great within, and you wonder why life speaks back with resistance. In Neville's terms, God is the I AM—awareness that imagines and thereby creates. When you insist you have not spoken against the Lord, you reveal a stubborn inner habit—blaming, retracting, justifying—that keeps your consciousness bound to lack. The remedy is not argument but a revision: assume the state that you are already aligned with the good you seek, and feel it as real. Speak, in imagination, from the presence of the I AM: I am in harmony with all life; I am loved; I am complete. Let your inner speech shift from accusation to affirmation, and the apparent world will respond to your new wind. The moment you revise, you no longer resist; you enable the flow of grace by becoming the consciousness that creates.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, place your hand on your chest, and revise your inner speech by stating: I AM the I AM within me; I choose to see the good now and feel it real.
