Neville Goddard on I AM / God-identity
Read these 8 lectures in order — they carry this idea most heavily, earliest first. After each one, take the suggested question to the mentor, who answers from Neville's own words.
Your Faith Is Your Fortune (1941)
1941…Dantés, at first, is impatient to acquire all this information; but the old priest, with infinite patience garnered through his long imprisonment, shows Dantés how unfit he is to receive this knowledge in his present, unprepared, anxious mind. So with philosophic calm he slowly reveals to the young man the mysteries of life and time. VI As Dantés ripens under the old priest’s instructions, the old…
The Creative Use of Imagination (1952)
1952…Although man wraps himself in conditions (states), the being he really is, is I AM. Anything man will consent to, he will manifest in his world. Can you accept as fact what your reason and senses deny? Or must you always bow to reason’s dictates? The same consciousness that produces health, produces sickness, wealth or poverty. Whatever you agree to be conscious of, whatever you affirm as true, yo…
At Your Command (1939)
1939…The reason men condition their desires is because they constantly judge after the appearance of being and see the things as real – forgetting that the only reality is the consciousness back of them. To see things as real is to deny that all things are possible to God. The man who is imprisoned and sees his four walls as real is automatically denying the urge or promise of God within him of freedom…
I Know My Father (1960)
1960…Every desire is the savior’s knock at the door. This knock, every man hears. Man opens the door for him to enter when he claims- I AM He. See to it that you let your savior in, by letting the thing desired press itself upon you, until you are I’mpressed with the Nowness of your savior, and utter the cry of Victory, “It is finished.” V HE WHO HAS “For he that hath, To him shall be given and To he t…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Live in the End” (1968)
July 19, 1968…Listen this very moment. You may not be able to whistle a tune. Maybe you can’t carry a tune in any manner whatsoever. You can’t play an instrument, you can’t whistle, you can’t sing. Well, can you now imagine that you are hearing The Battle Hymn of the Republic? Listen! Can’t you hear it? Can’t you augment it a thousand voices, ten thousand voices? Did you hear it at the funeral of Senator Kenned…
Freedom for All (1942)
1942…This discovery reveals that all that I have believed God to be I AM. “I AM the resurrection and the life,” is a statement of fact concerning my consciousness, for my consciousness resurrects or makes visibly alive that which I am conscious of being. “I AM the door…..all that ever came before me are thieves and robbers,” shows me that my consciousness is the one and only entrance into the world of …
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Believe Him In”
April 2, 1963…That comes in the most wonderful way through a series of events, all foretold in the beginning of what is known as sacred history. That’s the 17th chapter, the 17th verse of the Book of Genesis—that’s where it begins. Sacred history and divine history begins there. And you and I are brought into that state of consciousness called Abraham, and there we are shown, only in words. But if I painted a w…
Barabbas Or Jesus
April 5, 1963…And here, she saw it. Whether she’s here tonight or she’s been coming recently, I do not know—her story I’ve told in my latest book. She may even have forgotten the name of God. Who did it? Well, she might point across the water to a lady in England, 8,000 miles away, who died and left a certain will where she received $7,500 in US currency, which allowed her to do all these things, with something…
