Neville Goddard on Romans 11:2-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Romans 11 in context

Scripture Focus

2God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

3Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.

4But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.

Romans 11:2-4

Biblical Context

Romans 11:2-4 reveals that God has not rejected His people; Elijah’s complaint is answered by the revelation of a faithful remnant—seven thousand inner states that have not bowed to Baal.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the hearer within, the text says clearly: God has not cast away his people. Elijah’s complaint is merely the human sigh that wonders if the I AM is listening when the outer world seems to reject truth. Yet the inner law in view is Providence, the undivided I AM, preserving a remnant of faith. When the prophets are killed in your outward tale and altars topple in your memory, remember this: seven thousand inner states have not bowed to the image of Baal. They hide not in denial but in steadfast awareness. The remnant is a configuration of consciousness, a fortress of attention that remains true to God in spite of appearances. Your prayer, then, is not against someone but into your own heart’s intercession; you ask the Divine to show you the truth you already harbor. As you dwell there, you will discover the answer: you are not abandoned; you are safely preserved by the inner covenant, awaiting expression in action and peace.

Practice This Now

Assume the remnant conscious state now: declare, 'I am one of the seven thousand who have not bowed to Baal,' and feel that inner certainty saturate your being.
