Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 11:2-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 11 in context

Scripture Focus

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 11:2-7

Biblical Context

The speaker urges you to remember God's mighty acts—from Egypt's deliverance to the wilderness milestones—so you may recognize His power and covenant loyalty. This remembrance is meant to awaken trust and provide direction.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this reading, the great acts are not distant history but a map of your inner terrain. Egypt’s bondage, the Red Sea crossing, the wilderness, and the earth swallowing Dathan and Abiram all symbolize inner states you cross when you awaken to the I AM that you are. The 'arm of the LORD' becomes the living state of your awareness, the imagination that parts waters and stills fear. When you remember these acts, you are not praising an old deity but affirming a present capacity: you can liberate yourself from every belief that binds you and witness opposition melt before your steadfast trust in that I AM within. The eyes that saw the LORD’s works are your present senses attuned to the miraculous as a constant possibility. Providence and guidance become the feeling of being led by a secure inner hand. Your covenant loyalty is fidelity to the inner principle that never leaves your side, even when appearances deny it. The acts show you that imagination births reality and that you are, now, the one who was delivered.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and recall a present limitation; then revise it by assuming the feeling that you have already been delivered by the I AM. Let the sense of being led and protected become your present experience.
