The Inner Sun Arises

Malachi 4:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Malachi 4 in context

Scripture Focus

1For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
Malachi 4:1-2

Biblical Context

The passage contrasts a day of cleansing for the proud and wicked with a blessing for those who fear God. It promises the Sun of righteousness to bring healing and growth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the timeless act of scripture, the 'day' is not distant weather but your own inner climate. The oven that consumes the proud and the wicked is the purifying fire of awareness that burns away images and beliefs that say you are separate from God. When you insist on old stories of limitation, you stand among the stubble; when you hold to a reverent awareness of the I AM, the Sun of righteousness arises in your mind, bringing healing in its wings. This Sun is not an external sun so much as the radiance of consciousness; it travels with you wherever you go, warming afflictions into understanding and stripping fear from your actions. As this inner dawn expands, you are released from the stall of the old self and go forth, growing up as calves of the stall—strong, nourished, and ready to move into new fields. Remember: the text honors your present fear not as doom but as the call to awaken the greater light already within you.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the role of the Sun within your life. Close your eyes, feel a warm radiance rising in you, and declare, 'I am the Sun of righteousness arising in me, healing every area of my life.'
