The Law the Promise Reviews


  • Lenin

    As many of my other reviews on Neville’s work mention, he’s the best Law of Attraction and metaphysical teacher I have come across. His teachings on changing your reality, the methods and philosophies, all clearly aim at helping you, the listener/reader, instead of tagging you along for the next best-kept secret. His books brim with information he thinks is really required, instead of placeholders for meeting a page-count.

    I expected The Law and the Promise, being his last published book, to be a special work due to it being a culmination of all his years of experience as a teacher and practitioner of reality-bending. I was half right.

    This book does contain focus on the ‘next step’ after getting your material world in order through the power of imagination and faith—being born again from above. Neville dedicates the last chapter, ‘The Promise’, to this concept and boldly proclaims it, without fear of alienating his typical audience/reader. It shows the conviction of the man in preaching what he believes to be the truth, further solidifying him as someone who’s there to primarily help you!

    However, the bulk of the book, before the last chapter, is a collection of success stories, with the manifestation teachings sprinkled among them randomly, bordering on . For many, these stories might be of great value, adding to their hope and encouraging them to keep up with the methods that Neville teachers.

    For other, it might get tiresome to read one success story after another simply because they are using the same methods, regardless of the different ends they accomplish. You may not want to know, after a point, all the good things that happen to other, when it isn’t happening to you yet. You want continuous encouragement and a clear-cut plan of action to put these teachings into practice in your own life. That is something I see lacking in this book, thus the one star less.

    This book is a telling of what happens when you follow the Law, rather than an explanation of the Law. And rightly so—no fault of Neville’s—since he has explained the Law a thousand times before in his lectures and books. This review is just a warning for those who, like me, may look to this book as a primer on Neville’s teachings or may choose it as the first Neville book they read.

    Go ahead and read this book if you want a collection of some of the most interesting stories of manifestation successes from Neville’s students (of all ages and professions).

    One of the readers of my books recommended Neville Goddard to me as an author she thought I'd enjoy, and this was the first book I picked up. Mr Goddard and I share some of the same beliefs, and the various stories in this book of how to use your imagination to create reality was a great reminder of things I've half-forgotten. I look forward to reading more of his books.

    Short and powerful book teaching yet again the power we have to create the life we want.

    Pure ecstasy ✨

    chapter 6 is where it’s at!

  • Owen Osinde

    Just unbelievably good. The way Neville breaks down how powerful your imagination is and how it's the key to everything is just eye opening!

  • Heather Bayless

    I can get behind the idea of “imagination creates reality” but I can’t recommend this book as a good expander on that idea. It’s mostly just stories that are all styled and structured the same - hard to believe they were all told by different people. The more I read, the more I felt that this was just a repetition of the same idea ad nauseam.
    No deeper explanation. No ingenuity. Just stories and “personal accounts” that I didn’t believe because they all sounded like they were penned by the same hand.

    I am just happy finally finishing this inspiring book, I want to read more of Neville’s books in the upcoming months 🤍

    ive tested it, lets see if it works..

  • Eurydice Caldwell

    Fantastic and too the point. Took a while to sink in but it's the sort of book that continues to inform you well after you've read it. I have re-read it and it means more to me each time I dip in. It's an education of truth and a wealth of wisdom.

  • Mark Boyd

    "A powerful book to have in your library. It inspires me every time I read it."

  • Clark Eide

    Clear cut writing about the power of imagination on the energetic fields all around us.

    Knowing

    As you continue read Nevilles work the inner becomes the outer world. I have read many of his books and continue to change my mindset on how we create the very fabric of our world from the inside out. I would love to say I got it on the first few books but that be very untrue. Maybe I'm slow but the journey is a lifetime so I will plod along defining and refining my creation process and be in wonder as it shows up in my physical world.

    "If the fool would persist in his folly, He would become wise"

    Offers very practical advice and success stories about the Law of Assumption. If you're new to LoA, definitely a good place to start.

    Would have rated a 5 but the mystical experiences at the end kind of freaked me out.

    Good luck on everyone's LoA journey! I will not tell you to get what it is you desire, you already have it.

  • Abdullah Bahanshal

    Good book..

    Comparing with power of awareness and feeling is the secret, this book is notas great as them. I felt those book are more inspiring and describing more clearly the ideas that Neville wanted to convey.

    My first Neville Goddard book, have to say I was not blown away like other reviews. But, a decent read, nonetheless.

  • Vera

    3.8, valuable content but did not care for the style

  • Ifa Mujawar

    Too, too, TOO many stories trying to justify the point that imagination creates reality. Like ‘stories’ can't be just a bunch of creative lies, SMH.

  • sunflower

    What the hell is he saying? Sometimes I don’t understand anything. I will still believe in the law of assumption but people act like he created it and I won’t worship anyone. Not him for sure.
