Inner Throne, Seven Spirits
Revelation 4:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Revelation 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Revelation 4:5 portrays the throne of divine presence with lightnings and seven lamps burning before it, and identifies them as the seven Spirits of God. It invites you to recognize that inner dispositions shape your experience.
Neville's Inner Vision
Beloved, that throne is not a distant seat but the I AM within you, your constant awareness in which all life unfolds. The lightnings, thunderings, and voices are not external events; they are the fierce movements of thought and feeling that arise when you return your gaze to this inner presence. The seven lamps are seven states of consciousness that flow from the I AM when you consent to live from it: calm reverence, clear perception, steadfast faith, courageous action, compassionate insight, orderly conduct, and mindful obedience. They are not separate powers; they are different facets of the same Banner of Being that your attention raises. To worship truly is to separate your awareness from the noise of appearances and to dwell in the throne where power resides. It is not ritual but recognition—acknowledging I AM here and now until that presence reshapes your sense of possibility and the circumstances you call reality.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, place your hand on your chest, and silently affirm, I AM. Then picture one lamp igniting within you and rest in the feeling of that state until it becomes your lived reality.
