Turning Into The Inner Wilderness

Deuteronomy 1:40 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 1 in context

Scripture Focus

40But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
Deuteronomy 1:40

Biblical Context

The verse commands you to turn from your current path and journey into the wilderness by the Red Sea. It signals a move into testing and preparation for deliverance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the turn is a deliberate decision of consciousness. The wilderness is not a place outside you; it is the inner climate where you suspend reliance on outward signs and listen to the I AM. The road by the Red Sea represents a boundary you cross when you declare, 'I am' in charge of your life, and let your imagination redraw the map. When you turn, you acknowledge that Providence does not come to you from afar but exists as your own awareness, guiding you step by inner step. The exile into the desert becomes a return to your truth: liberation arises as you stand in this new state and persist in feeling the reality of what you intend. The journey is not mere travel; it is the practice of endurance—refusing to yield to doubt until the inner breakthrough appears. In this light, Deliverance and Liberation are already present as you inhabit the I AM and choose the inner commandments that lead you home.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume you have already turned inward, walking the desert path in your mind. Feel the Red Sea part before you as the I AM guides your every step toward the land within.
