Neville Goddard on Revelation 5:1-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Revelation 5 in context

Scripture Focus

1And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

3And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

4And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

Revelation 5:1-4

Biblical Context

The vision presents a scroll sealed with seven seals held by the throne. No one is found worthy to open it, causing the speaker to weep.

Neville's Inner Vision

The throne represents your present awareness, and the book in the right hand is your inner Word—your destiny written within and on the back, now sealed by seven habitual beliefs. The seven seals symbolize the divisions you have accepted between you and life: fear, worry, anger, doubt, lack, time, and separation. No creature in heaven, earth, or beneath can unseal it while you identify with those limits, and your tears reveal the stubborn belief that the Word is hidden from you. In the Neville sense, the reader of this book is not a distant judge but your I AM—awareness itself—already capable of unsealing what was sealed. When you assent to the truth that you are the I AM, you unloose the seals by living from that identity, by imagining the book opened and read, and by feeling the reality of the desired outcome now. The moment you accept you are the one worthy because you are God in expression, the sealed page yields its meaning and your life aligns with its writing.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and declare 'I AM' as the reader of my life. Then envision the book before you, seals dissolving, and your desired outcome appearing in vivid detail.
