Inner Flood Ends All
Nahum 1:8-10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Nahum 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
These verses announce a divine end to a place, pursued by darkness. They insist that affliction will not rise again, and show old conditions being burned away.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the vantage of the I AM, Nahum presents the inner weather of your mind as its own flood and darkness. The overrunning flood is a surge of imagining that sweeps away a belief you once held as real. The darkness pursuing enemies is the fear thoughts that arise when you doubt your own consciousness. When the text asks, What do ye imagine against the LORD? it invites you to test your thoughts about the Lord of your life—the I AM within you. If you insist on the end by assuming a new state, the outward scene follows the inner revision. The image of affliction not rising again signals that old patterns cannot reassert themselves when you dwell in the conviction of the end. The thorny, dry stubble becomes a sign of old habits drying up under the fire of awareness. Embrace this shift by steady imagination, not struggle, until the new state stands complete in you.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise a present trouble as already ended by the inner flood. Feel the finality in your chest and rest in the awareness of I AM.
