Inner Crossing of Deuteronomy 1:28
Deuteronomy 1:28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Deuteronomy 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse shows the people paralyzed by fear of formidable enemies and fortified cities, discouraged by their own kin. The inner message is to reclaim trust and move forward by faith.
Neville's Inner Vision
To your inner ear, Deuteronomy 1:28 is a report of a fear that lives inside you as a state of mind. The cry 'Where shall we go up?' becomes your own question when you forget that the land you seek is a state of consciousness, not a place bordered by walls. The words 'the people is greater and taller than we' echo your limiting beliefs; the 'sons of Anakims' are the stubborn thoughts that say 'you cannot'—a memory of past failures. Yet the I AM within you remains constant, unseen but present, inviting you to lift the scene and declare a different outcome. When you accept that the conquest is carried within, obedience and faithfulness become rehearsals of your new state. Do not try to move the world; move your inner belief. The imagined crossing is the actual crossing. As you dwell in the feeling that you are already there, the fear dissolves, and the walls you saw vanish into the invite of your new land.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and repeat in the present tense, 'I am already in the land; the walls are down; I trust the I AM within me to lead me forward.' Then visualize stepping across a threshold with calm certainty.
