Inner Worship Over Noise
Amos 5:21-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Amos 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Amos 5:21-24 rejects mere feast days and songs when justice and righteousness are absent. True worship is the living alignment of your inner state with right action.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the quiet of your awareness, you are not measured by outward rites but by the movement of your inner state. When the prophet says I hate your feast and I will not smell your offerings, hear it as a declaration from your own I AM to the habit of ritual without transformation. The 'noise of your songs' is the mental chatter that pretends to honor God while your choices betray compassion, fairness, and truth. Let judgment run down as waters and righteousness as a mighty stream—this is not a directive to condemn others, but a summons to awaken to the dynamic of consciousness. You are the creator of your world by the state you habitually occupy. If you insist on separation—festivals, offerings, and praise while neglecting justice—you contract your life to appearances. But if you dwell in the living state of justice and compassion, the outer forms become natural expressions, and what others call miracles are simply the natural law of your quiet, convinced I AM at work. Practice by assuming you are already in that state, and feel the conviction that rightness is your dominant experience.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already in the state of justice and compassion. Feel the river of righteousness flowing through you and revise any urge to perform for appearance into simple, right action in this moment.
