Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 11:1-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 11 in context

Scripture Focus

1Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.

2And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,

3And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

4And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;

5And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place;

6And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:

7But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.

Deuteronomy 11:1-7

Biblical Context

The passage commands you to love the Lord, to keep His statutes and commandments, and to remember the mighty acts He performed for Israel. It asserts that awareness of God's presence comes from faithful obedience and recollection of His deeds.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice how the text calls you to love the LORD your God and keep his charge as a present discipline of consciousness. In Neville’s language, the people are states of awareness, and the acts of God are inner movements you witness within. When you recall the plagues and the parted sea, you are not recounting distant history but waking a consciousness that knows itself protected, guided, and purposeful. The admonition to remember becomes a discipline of imagination: you stand in the Red Sea danger, and your I AM declares, this barrier is dissolved by a greater life within. The wilderness episodes and the earth swallowing Dathan and Abiram speaks to old identities dissolving under the certainty of your inner truth. By choosing to love and obey as a living conviction, you align with the acts you have already witnessed in consciousness. You are not changing God’s acts; you are waking to the fact that God’s acts are your inner reality now.

Practice This Now

Act: In a quiet moment, assume the state 'I AM the LORD my God' and feel the memory of God's mighty acts as a living demonstration within you. Keep repeating until it feels real in the belly of your being.
