Inner Prophet, Outer Fear
Matthew 21:46 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Matthew 21:46 shows the arrest of Jesus halted by the crowd's reverence for him as a prophet. The outer event reflects inner dynamics of belief and perception.
Neville's Inner Vision
Notice how the ‘arrest’ is not only a political act but a reflection of your inner state. The rulers tremble before a crowd because the crowd’s belief becomes the force that seems to protect their authority. If you drop the belief that you are at the mercy of appearances and instead awaken to the I AM within, you will see that the ‘prophet’ in you is not a threat but a manifestation of your true identity. The label 'prophet' is simply the inner recognition that your awareness speaks truths your senses cannot yet hold. When you acknowledge that God is your I AM and that imagination creates your reality, the power to act is already yours and the fear of the multitude dissolves. The scene then declares a prophecy: your inner conviction governs what happens without your needing to force it. No external hand can touch your reality when you know you are the living voice of truth inside the mind that beholds it.
Practice This Now
Assume you are the prophet of your life; in quiet, feel the I AM within as unassailable and revise the belief that fear controls you. Then imagine the crowd recognizing your truth and stepping back.
