Neville Goddard on Mark 11:23-24 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Mark 11 in context

Scripture Focus

23For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Mark 11:23-24

Biblical Context

Mark 11:23-24 teaches that you can move what seems immovable by speaking with unwavering faith and by believing you have already received what you desire. Belief acts as the mountain mover when doubt is absent from the heart.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the Gospel’s scenes, the mountain is not rock but a pattern of thought. You are not persuading an external world; you are waking to the fact that you are the I AM, the consciousness that names reality. When you say to this 'mountain'—be removed—and you do not doubt in your heart, you are simply shifting the state you inhabit. The words are not magic apart from your inner conviction. The sea you cast it into is the vast subconscious, where images and beliefs swim. To pray is to align your inner state with the thing desired; to believe that you receive is to assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled. The old habitual doubt dissolves as you live from the end, not to win but because you already possess. The discipline is to refuse any contrary image and to keep the inner narrative steady until your external conditions echo the new state.

Practice This Now

Choose a single desire and close your eyes. Imagine it already yours, feel the relief in your chest, and hold that feeling for a minute, then carry the sense of the state with you throughout the day.
