Call Upon Self | The Neville Goddard Lectures

This episode of The Neville Goddard Lectures Podcast features the lecture summary read by Lynna K Teer, and the full original lecture “Call Upon Self” by Neville Goddard.

In Call Upon Self, Neville Goddard dismantles the habit of turning to external sources for guidance, rescue, or power. He teaches that all true help comes from within, because the only creative authority is the awareness of I AM operating as the individual.

Neville explains that prayer, when properly understood, is not a request made to an outside deity, but an inner act of self-recognition. To “call upon self” is to assume the state that implies fulfillment and to rest in the awareness that consciousness alone is the cause of experience.

Throughout the lecture, Neville emphasizes that dependence on outer conditions, people, or circumstances weakens creative authority. When the individual looks inward and claims imagination as God, they move from hope and pleading into certainty and command.

Key themes explored in this lecture include:

• Self as the only source of power

• Prayer as inner assumption rather than petition

• Imagination as God in action

• Independence from external causes

Neville reminds listeners that every answer arises from within consciousness itself. When one calls upon self, guidance, provision, and transformation unfold naturally as expressions of the assumed state.

This lecture reinforces Neville Goddard’s core teaching that salvation, power, and fulfillment are not granted from without, but realized through inner acceptance of one’s true identity as the operant power.
