Harvest Prayer Within
Matthew 9:38 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Matthew 9:38 invites us to pray to the Lord of the harvest for laborers to join the work. The verse anchors mission in petition and inner readiness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Beloved, the Lord of the harvest is not a distant ruler but the I AM within you, the consciousness that makes every scene appear. When you utter a petition for laborers, you are not asking others to go out into a field; you are inviting your own imagination to shift into the state that creates workers, work, and witnesses. The harvest you see in life is a mirror of your inner disposition. The labors are the ideas, habits, and actions you align with your true aim. To pray, then, is to consent to a new inner state and to assume that this state has already called forth the people and opportunities you seek. The moment you feel the wish as if already fulfilled—the sense of those laborers moving with purpose—you awaken the mental conditions that summon them into your concrete world. Do not chase results; cultivate the feeling that your field is fully manned, and the outer scene will rearrange itself to reflect your inner conviction.
Practice This Now
Practice: sit quietly, breathe, and imagine your field already staffed with those laborers; feel the certainty that the work is done. Let that assumption linger and let the feeling color your day.
