Neville Goddard on Revelation 19:19-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Revelation 19 in context

Scripture Focus

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.

Revelation 19:19-20

Biblical Context

Revelation 19:19-20 presents an inner judgment: egoic powers such as the beast and the false prophet are cast into the lake of fire. The rider on the horse represents the I AM, the true divine consciousness that prevails.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this vision, the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies are not distant warriors but the stubborn states of your own mind—the pride, fear, and craving for control that march against your Christed awareness. The miracles performed by the beast and the false prophet are the ego’s clever tricks, designed to persuade you to worship images rather than the living I AM. When these powers are taken, they are cast alive into a lake of fire, a fiery cleansing that reveals those powers were never ruler but appearances in consciousness. The fire is not punishment; it is purification by truth, consuming the belief that you are defined by them. The rider on the horse—the I AM within you—advances as the sole governor, and the war ends the moment you acknowledge that only God-imaged awareness governs you. The kingdoms of this world dissolve into the light of your awakened mind. You awaken to the Kingdom within where righteousness and justice operate through the one sovereign I AM.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the I AM is your only governor now. Then revise one limiting belief by stating, 'That thought is dissolved in the fire of awareness.'
