Read Mark 9 in context

Scripture Focus

19He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

20And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

21And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

Mark 9:19-21

Biblical Context

Jesus responds to the faithless generation, telling them to bring the boy to him. The demon convulses the child when Jesus approaches, and the father explains the affliction began in childhood.

Neville's Inner Vision

The faithless generation is a state of consciousness, not a crowd. Healing comes not by pleading with a distant power, but by inviting the troubling circumstance into the awareness of I AM. When the father notes this began in childhood, that is the memory imprint to revise. By bringing the situation into the presence of the I AM, you witness inner resistance tremble and yield, for you are no longer acting from lack but from the reality of your own being. Jesus’ question about duration invites you to inspect your inner time clock and realize you can alter the past by affirming the end you desire in the now. The presence of God you seek is the steady awareness that you are the I AM, and healing flows from that assurance. The boy’s condition symbolizes a belief you hold; dissolving it in consciousness yields deliverance and restoration.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and affirm, I AM the healer now. In your imagination, revise the scene to perfect wellness—see the boy whole, feel the relief, and dwell in that certainty until it becomes real.
