Romans 12:14-21 Inner Blessing
Romans 12:14-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Romans 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage instructs blessing those who persecute you, sharing in others' joys and sorrows, resisting vengeance, and choosing peaceful, honest conduct to overcome evil with good.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you lies the I AM, the timeless awareness that creates your world. Romans 12:14-21, seen through Neville’s lens, teaches that outer events are inner movements of consciousness. When you bless the one who persecutes you, you are not changing them; you are changing the image you hold of yourself as the observer of life. Your assumption that you are the blessing shifts the inner weather: the feeling of victimhood dissolves, and the I AM asserts itself as peaceful presence. Rejoicing with those who rejoice and weeping with those who weep become exercises in sympathetic unity, dissolving separation. Do not seek to conquer others; condescend to the low estate, seeing your equal in least form. Refuse to repay evil; instead, provide what is honest, and leave vengeance to the law of your own mind, which says: 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord'—the Lord being your higher self. If you entertain the image of a hostile scene dissolving into harmony, you align with the principle that overcoming evil with good is a state of consciousness, not a deed alone.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling 'I am the blessing in this encounter.' For a few minutes, bless the person who persecutes you in your imagination, and envision the scene shifting toward peace as you awaken to that feeling as real.
