Inner War of the Faithful Remnant
Revelation 12:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Revelation 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
In Revelation 12:17, a dragon enraged at the woman turns to war with the remnant who keep God's commandments and bear testimony to Christ.
Neville's Inner Vision
This verse is a vivid map of the inner warfare within every consciousness. The dragon represents your habitual fears, doubts, and the ego's resistance to your true I AM presence. The woman stands for the higher self—your divine awareness that is already aligned with God’s law. The remnant seed is the inner faculty that remains faithful to that divine order, and the testimony of Jesus Christ is the lived assurance that truth is now present in your experience. When fear rises, you are not commanded to conquer an external foe but to identify with the inner authority that commands the conditions of your life. The war is the mind’s friction as you refuse to abandon your inner commandments or the proof that you know the truth. Embrace the conviction that you are ruled by the inner covenant of love and law, and let your thoughts, feelings, and actions bear witness to this state. In this light, the prophecy becomes a practical invitation to remain faithful to the end, knowing your reality obeys your inner I AM.
Practice This Now
Assume you are the remnant within, keeping the divine commandments now; revise any fear by declaring, 'I AM the I AM, and I stand in the testimony of Christ,' then feel the peace as the outer war dissolves.
