Inner Victory Over Evil
Romans 12:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Romans 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Romans 12:21 exhorts you not to be overcome by evil but to overcome it with good. It points to an inner disposition that determines outer outcomes.
Neville's Inner Vision
Be not overwhelmed by the appearance of 'evil' as something outside you, for it arises from a state of consciousness within. The command invites you to refuse identification with fear, anger, or revenge, and to cultivate the inner image of good that already resides in you. When you steady the I AM—the awareness that you are, and you are one with divine intelligence—you discover that 'overcoming' is a revision in imagination. Instead of meeting evil with force, you meet it with the presence of good: mercy, patience, and constructive action that springs from your inner kingdom. The outer scene then rearranges to reflect the nature of your inner assumption. This is not morality as effort, but alignment with your true self, the I AM that never wanders from peace. By dwelling in the feeling of mercy and the certainty that good is your native state, you permit the law to operate through you, transforming conflict into harmony and injustice into justice.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Assume the feeling that you are already the overcomer; in tension, close your eyes and repeat, 'I am the good that overcomes evil,' letting that truth saturate the moment until it becomes your lived reality.
