Amos 3:4-6 Inner Signs of Providence

Amos 3:4-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Amos 3 in context

Scripture Focus

4Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Amos 3:4-6

Biblical Context

Amos 3:4-6 asks whether dangers occur without cause and suggests outward events reveal a city's inner state and the Lord's activity.

Neville's Inner Vision

All the signs you read in Amos are movements of your inner life. A lion's roar, a snare's pull, a trumpet's blast are not external omens but inner impulses and beliefs you are imagining as true. When you ask, 'shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?' you are being shown that the outer world is a reflection of your inner state—the I AM that you are, the consciousness that designs your experiences. The divine does not punish from without; it simply answers the state you habitually dwell in. Therefore, refuse the belief that calamity comes from someone else or from chance. Instead, revise your state to one of order, justice, and safety, and let that inner reality expand into your surroundings. In practice, treat the city as a dream you are waking from—hold the feeling that harmony, righteousness, and guidance are already present, and observe the outer events rearranging to match that inner state. The authority you seek is already within your I AM, awakening your world into alignment with Providence.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: In moments of disturbance, close your eyes and assume the state you desire as already true; feel the inner reality of safety, justice, and order until it saturates you. Repeat a simple revision: 'I am the I AM; I create this world now,' and carry that feeling forward until the outer signs reflect your inner state.
