#59: To Him That Hath

To Him That Hath

A Lecture in the Voice and Spirit of Neville Goddard

You who sit here tonight feeling the weight of lack pressing upon you, hear this eternal word: to him that hath it shall be given, and to him that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have. This is not a harsh decree from some distant throne; it is the quiet, inexorable law of your own consciousness made visible. Feel yourself already blessed and the evidence of blessing multiplies without effort. Remain unconscious of blessing and even the appearance of it dissolves before your eyes. This is the law, and it operates with the precision of light itself.

You look about and see limitation in your world. You feel the pinch of scarcity in health, in supply, in harmony, in every avenue of your life. And yet the principle stands unshaken: that which you are conscious of being, you multiply a hundredfold. That which you are unconscious of being, you cannot keep. Consciousness is the only reality. To feel yourself already blessed is to be the one to whom all things are added. Not tomorrow, not after some struggle, but in this very moment of recognition the multiplication begins.

See it clearly. God, your own awareness of being, gives to each and all that which you are aware of being. To be aware of blessing is to have blessing pressed down, shaken together, and running over. You are not begging for evidence; you are the source from which evidence flows. When you feel yourself to be the blessed one, already rich in every good thing, already whole, already at peace, already fulfilled, then your world must rearrange itself to reflect that inner conviction. The outer cannot resist the inner. It never has and it never will.

Many hear this and think it too simple, too merciful perhaps, but it is the law. The rich grow richer because they are conscious of riches. The poor grow poorer because they are conscious of poverty. Not because life favors one over another, but because life is forever faithful to the state you wear. You wear the state of blessing by feeling it now. You clothe yourself in it as a garment. And once that garment is assumed, all things gravitate toward you that are in tune with it, while those that are not quietly fall away.

Feel it deeply. Right now, in this instant, withdraw your attention from every seeming lack. Let the senses testify as they will, but turn within and declare with quiet certainty, I am blessed. I am the one to whom all things are given. I dwell in the fullness of life. I am already overflowing with every good. Do not strain. Do not force. Simply let the feeling of being blessed settle upon you as naturally as breath. That feeling is the creative act. That feeling is the command that cannot be denied. And because you are now conscious of blessing, blessing must multiply in your experience.

This is what the scriptures mean when they declare to him that hath it shall be given. The “hath” is not possession in the outer sense; it is possession in consciousness. You already possess everything in potential, but you actualize it only by becoming conscious of it as already yours. Feel yourself blessed tonight and tomorrow the evidence will begin to appear in ways you could not have planned. A phone call, an unexpected kindness, a sudden opening where none seemed possible—these are not coincidences. They are the inevitable out-picturing of your new state.

And what of the one who feels himself unblessed? Even the little he seems to have slips away, not as punishment, but as the natural consequence of his own awareness. Consciousness cannot hold what it does not claim. If you claim lack, lack is magnified. If you claim blessing, blessing is magnified. There is no other law. You are forever receiving the multiplied form of that which you are conscious of being. Choose, then, this night, to be the blessed one. Choose it not with lips but with the deep, wordless feeling of the heart.

Let us dwell longer on this majestic truth, for it deserves your full attention. Your awareness of being is the unconditioned giver. It respects no person, no circumstance, no past record. It simply renders to you pressed down and running over that which you are conscious of being. When you feel blessed, you are not hoping for blessing; you are being it. And being it, you cannot escape its fruits. The world is your mirror. It can show you nothing other than the face you wear in consciousness. Wear the face of one already blessed and the mirror must reflect abundance in every form.

This principle operates in the smallest detail and in the largest. A man conscious of health finds his body responding with vitality. A man conscious of supply finds channels opening where none existed. A man conscious of love finds harmony flowering around him. Why? Because he hath. He is conscious of it, and to him that hath it is given. The evidence multiplies because consciousness is creative. It does not wait for permission from the senses. It creates regardless.

You may say, but I do not feel blessed. Then that is precisely why the appearance of lack persists. The remedy is not to fight the lack but to transfer your awareness. Turn gently, persistently, lovingly to the feeling of being blessed until it becomes natural. Until it feels more real than the evidence of the senses. Do this tonight while the body is still. In the quiet of your own being, assume the feeling that would be yours if every desire were already fulfilled. Luxuriate in that feeling. Bathe in it. Let it permeate every cell of your awareness. This is the true tithing—giving to God, your awareness, the quality of blessing. And God returns it multiplied beyond measure.

See how merciful this law truly is. It places the power entirely in your hands. You need no one’s permission. You need no outer change first. The change begins and ends within. Feel yourself blessed now and the outer must conform. It has no choice. The law is absolute. To him that hath—meaning to him that is conscious of having—it shall be given. The giving is the multiplication of evidence in your world. More health, more peace, more opportunity, more joy, more of everything that is in tune with blessing.

And notice this: even that which you seem to have but are not conscious of possessing will be taken away if you do not claim it consciously. This is not loss; it is preparation. It is life clearing the ground so that the new state may stand forth unhindered. Nothing is ever destroyed. All is fulfilled in the new consciousness. When you shift to feeling blessed, the old appearances that no longer match simply dissolve, and in their place the new evidence rushes in.

Live this tonight. Before sleep, do not review the day’s lacks. Instead, let the last conscious thought be, I am blessed. I dwell in the kingdom of fulfillment. I am the recipient of endless good. Feel it until sleep claims you. Then, in the morning, before the world rushes in, reaffirm the same feeling. Carry it with you as a quiet secret. Walk as one who is already blessed. Speak as one who is already blessed. Act as one who knows the multiplication has begun. You will be astonished at how quickly the evidence appears.

The doubt may arise: but how can this be when the senses contradict? The senses have no creative power. They are merely the servants of consciousness. They report what you have previously been conscious of. Change the consciousness and the report must change. Persist in the new feeling despite the old report, and the old report will be revised. This is the test and the triumph. To him that hath—despite appearances—it shall be given.

Dwell upon this until it becomes your very identity. You are not trying to get blessing; you are being the blessed one. In that being, the evidence multiplies effortlessly. It is as natural as the tide. Consciousness is forever objectifying itself. Let it objectify blessing. Let it multiply every good thing in your experience. This is your birthright. This is the kingdom within. Claim it by feeling it now.

And as you go deeper into this realization, notice how every facet of your life responds. The body relaxes into health because you are conscious of wholeness. Relationships harmonize because you are conscious of love. Opportunities appear because you are conscious of abundance. All things gravitate to the consciousness with which they are in tune. You have become the magnet of blessing simply by feeling yourself already blessed.

This is the secret the wise have always known. The foolish chase the evidence; the wise claim the state. The foolish see lack and multiply it; the wise see fullness and multiply that. Tonight you stand at the crossroads of choice. Choose the consciousness of blessing. Choose it utterly. Let no reservation linger. Feel yourself to be the one to whom all things are given, and watch as the evidence multiplies before your very eyes.

You need not wait for tomorrow. The law operates instantly in the moment of assumption. The moment you truly feel blessed, the multiplication begins. It may be subtle at first—a lift in mood, a quiet assurance, a small but unmistakable sign. Then it gathers momentum. More and more evidence flows. More and more confirmation arrives. Until your world is transformed into the perfect reflection of your inner conviction.

This is not theory. This is not hope. This is the changeless principle of life itself. To him that hath it shall be given. Feel yourself blessed and blessing is given in overflowing measure. Remain unconscious of it and even the appearance fades. The choice is forever yours. Tonight, make the choice that sets you free. Tonight, assume the feeling of being already blessed. Tonight, become the one to whom all things are added.

And as this realization deepens within you, let it permeate every corner of your being. Let it become the foundation upon which you stand. Let it be the atmosphere you breathe. You are blessed. You are the blessed. You are the center from which blessing radiates and to which blessing returns multiplied. Nothing can oppose this when you are firmly established in the feeling.

The world may continue for a moment to show the old picture, but pay it no mind. It is only the echo of yesterday’s consciousness. Today’s consciousness is new. Today’s feeling is blessed. Today’s evidence is already forming. Trust it. Rest in it. Rejoice in it silently, secretly, powerfully. The multiplication is certain.

You who have felt stuck, who have wondered why change eludes you, now know the reason and the remedy. The reason was unconsciousness of blessing. The remedy is the deliberate, loving assumption of that consciousness. Feel it until it feels natural. Feel it until it is more real than anything the senses report. Then stand in that reality and let the law fulfill itself.

This is the gospel of fulfillment. Nothing is denied to the one who hath in consciousness. Everything is added. Everything is multiplied. The poor in consciousness remain poor; the rich in consciousness grow richer still. Become rich in the consciousness of blessing and watch your world overflow.

Let this truth sink into the very depth of your soul tonight. You are not separate from the blessing you seek. You are the blessing when you feel it. And in that feeling the evidence multiplies without ceasing. This is the law. This is the promise. This is the living reality available to you now.

Go forth, then, not as one hoping, but as one knowing. Go forth as the blessed one. Walk in that consciousness. Sleep in that consciousness. Awaken in that consciousness. And the world will have no choice but to confirm what you have claimed within.

For to him that hath—to him that feels himself already blessed—it shall be given, and given, and given again, until every area of your life bears witness to the fullness that is yours by divine right. This is the eternal truth. Accept it. Live it. And be free.

You are blessed. You have always been the blessed when you claim it. Claim it now, fully, joyously, unreservedly. And the multiplication of evidence will be your constant companion from this night forward. The law cannot fail. Consciousness cannot lie. You are the one to whom all things are given because you have become conscious of being the blessed one.

Rest in this. Rejoice in this. And let the new world rise around you as naturally as the dawn. It is done. You have claimed it. The evidence is on its way, multiplying even now.
