Thirsting for Inner Nourishment

Amos 8:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Amos 8 in context

Scripture Focus

13In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
Amos 8:13

Biblical Context

Amos 8:13 speaks of a moment when the pure and young faint for thirst; it is a symbol of spiritual dryness born from forgotten inner nourishment. The verse invites us to look within for the sustenance we seek.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Amos, that day is not a distant disaster but the instant dawn of awareness. The fair virgins and young men symbolize aspects of your being—purity, vitality, and innocence—now experiencing thirst as a sign that inner nourishment has been forgotten. Thirst arises when you identify with lack, not with the ever-present fullness of the I AM within you. Your state creates your sense of need; change the state, and the need dissolves. The remedy is not external relief but a deliberate revision of consciousness: assume, here and now, that the I AM is nourishing you, and feel that nourishment as real. Picture a flow of living water rising from your core, warming your chest and belly, and declare, “I AM fed by the fullness of God within me.” Hold that feeling until it becomes your natural tone. With sustained feeling-it-real, the drought of thirst vanishes and the day becomes one where abundance wells up from the inside, expressing outwardly as vitality and sustenance.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, repeat, 'I AM nourished by the fullness within me,' and imagine a clear stream of living water flowing into you. Sit with the sensation for a minute, then carry the felt presence of fullness into your day.
