Amos 7: The Inner Prophet
Amos 7:14-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Amos 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Amos explains he is not a trained prophet but is chosen by God while tending sheep; God commands him to speak to Israel, despite opposition from those in power.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the seeker of consciousness, Amos’s declaration becomes your doorway. The outward label of herdman or not a prophet is irrelevant; the Lord says, I chose you while you followed the flock. This is the inner choosing—the I AM that moves you when you attend a quiet listening. The house of Israel is the inner kingdom of your awareness, and Amaziah’s command to prophesy against it is the inner voice of doubt trying to keep you in place. When you hear the call, you are not summoned by rank, but by the living presence within. The punishment language is warning that neglected truth becomes turbulence in your world; exile and captivity are the mind clinging to limitation. But the moment you accept the inner commission, you become the voice of your own awakening: you prophesy to your inner Israel by imagining your true state and feeling it real. The act is not grandiosity; it is return to alignment with the I AM, the source that enrolls you in your personal exodus from limitation to liberty.
Practice This Now
Assume the role of your inner prophet now: silently say, 'I am called to prophesy to my inner Israel.' Then imagine hearing the inner voice guiding your next quiet step and feel it as real.
