Neville Goddard on Malachi 4:4-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Malachi 4 in context

Scripture Focus

4Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.

5Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:

6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Malachi 4:4-6

Biblical Context

Remember the inner law and walk in its discipline. Elijah within turns the heart toward reconciliation, so your life reflects harmony instead of a curse.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the law of Moses is the inner law of consciousness, the orderly arrangement of your I AM's attention. Remembering it fixes the pattern by which you live; the Elijah within is the awakening faculty that turns the heart from yesterday's separation toward oneness. He moves the heart of the father to the child and the heart of the child to the father, not by compulsion but by your felt sense of unity. The great and dreadful day is simply the moment of inner decision: you either cling to old grievance and suffer its effects, or you release it into harmony and witness restoration in your world. The curse you fear is the natural result of a disordered state; the moment you align with the inner law, the earth is healed by your shift in consciousness. So, know that you are the one who creates. Wake into this truth and observe your surroundings respond as if the dream were waking into daylight.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and declare the inner law is remembered; feel the Elijah within turning hearts toward unity. Then revise a current disagreement by mentally granting the other person love and open-hearted response, until you feel the yes within.
