The Inner Law Taught

Neville's Inner Vision

Your text shows teachers moving through Judah with the book of the LORD to teach the people. In Neville Goddard’s view, this outward scene is a symbol of an inner act. The 'book of the law' is the living decree written in the I AM—your constant awareness. To go about teaching is to move your attention through the cities of your mind, bringing the law into every corner of consciousness. Each city is a fixed state of feeling—fear, doubt, resolve, faith. When you carry the law with you, you walk through those states and invite the people—your thoughts, habits, and circumstances—to listen. The result is Covenant loyalty: obedience born not of external compulsion, but of awakening to your own inner authority. As you remind yourself that the law is within, you shift allegiance from lack to fullness, from division to harmony, and your outer world begins to answer in kind. The teacher and the taught are one: your awareness teaching itself through the events of your life.
