Twelve Foundations Within You
Revelation 21:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Revelation 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Verse 21:14 speaks of a city whose wall rests on twelve foundations named for the apostles, symbolizing inner states of consciousness that uphold reality.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Revelation's line, I see a city whose wall stands upon twelve foundations—the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. In Neville's sense, these are twelve states of consciousness I elect and sustain by imagination. The apostles are not distant travelers; they are the voices of my own I AM bearing witness that reality is consciousness formed by belief. When I keep my attention on these foundations—affirmation, fidelity to the inner self, patience, truth, love, courage, gratitude, harmony, clarity, compassion, integrity, and faith—the wall grows beneath me and the city comes alive in my experience. The wall is not a barrier but a boundary of consistent awareness; its strength rests on the fidelity of my inner conviction. By assuming, 'I am the city, I stand within a completed kingdom,' I awaken to the truth that the outer world reflects these inner states. The entire vision is about presence: the kingdom is within me now, built by the twelve apostles of the Lamb who witness from the inside.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, stand inside the city in your mind, and declare, 'I am the I AM; I stand in a city whose foundations are held by the apostles of the Lamb.' Feel the security of the wall around you and the certainty of your inner states until they feel real.
