Amos 4:9-11 Inner Turning Point
Amos 4:9-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Amos 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Amos recounts God’s acts of drought, pestilence and upheaval meant to turn Israel back, yet the people persist in not returning to the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the Neville lens, these verses are not mere history but a mirror of the mind. The blasting, mildew, palmerworm, and pestilence are inner conditions—disruptions in the self-image that you, the I AM, observe. When your gardens increase and you still do not return, it means your consciousness has not chosen the steady, God-centered state. The external plagues are only signs that you are resisting a return to your true source. The overthrow of some, like Sodom and Gomorrah, is the mind’s dramatic shake‑up that disrupts old identifications, offering the possibility of a new center. The repeated phrase, 'yet have ye not returned unto me,' is an invitation to revise your sense of self and to assume a new ruling idea—God within, the I AM, the perceiver who declares, 'I am turned back to my source.' When you dwell in that inner state, the conditions outside lose their grip, for you now act from the inner kingdom rather than being driven by appearances. Your life becomes a conscious creation aligned with the divine I AM.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Assume the inner state—'I am returning to the I AM within'—and feel it real for several minutes each day. Let the old sense of separation melt away as you dwell in that center.
