Neville Goddard on Revelation 19:17-21 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Revelation 19 in context

Scripture Focus

17And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;

18That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.

19And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

21And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

Revelation 19:17-21

Biblical Context

An angel proclaims divine judgment: rulers, captains, and mighty men are gathered for a symbolic feast. The beast and the false prophet are cast into the lake of fire, and the remnant are slain by the sword that proceeds from the rider's mouth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe that the angel in the sun is the I AM presence blazing inside you, the awareness that makes every pattern of ego burn under truth. The supper summoned for the fowls is the act of gathering all your beliefs about power into one flame of consciousness and refusing to feed the old self anymore. The flesh of kings, captains, and mighty men stands for the forms of control you once worshiped; the beast and the false prophet are the stubborn habits and deceit your mind repeats. When the beast, the false prophet, and their armies are overcome by the sword that proceeds from the rider's mouth, you are not enacting punishment but performing release: the memory of separation dissolves in the fire of truth. The remnant slain are the last vestiges of ego clinging to form; yet the sword is the Word of Truth that ends the drama and reveals the Kingdom within you. The day of wrath is simply your decision to yield to the I AM and let consciousness reign. When you do, the outer scene aligns with the inward reality you have always been.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly, declare 'I AM that I AM,' and then imagine the beast and false prophet dissolving into light as the sword of truth speaks within you. Feel the old self melt and affirm, 'Only the Kingdom within is real.'
