Neville Goddard on Nahum 1:12-13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Nahum 1 in context

Scripture Focus

12Thus saith the LORD; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.

13For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.

Nahum 1:12-13

Biblical Context

The Lord declares that oppression will end and a yoke will be broken. The outer scene reflects an inner shift of consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the I AM, this verse reveals no external conquerors but the turning of your inner state. The quiet armies of fear and the many voices of doubt are appearances; when the I AM passes through, those images are cut down. The line 'Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more' signals a release from a former consciousness that lived as limitation; deliverance comes as a revision in consciousness, not merely a change of scenery. The 'yoke' and 'bonds' are mental cords you have believed in. To experience release, assume the state of the free I AM now; feel the liberty as a present fact, and let the old oppression recede. As you dwell in that inner reality, the external conditions align with it, and the inner and outer worlds begin to unwind into harmony. This is the inner genesis of salvation: a fresh awareness that you are not bound, that the power to end bondage rests in the I AM you awaken to.
