Inner Cleanliness and Nourishment

Deuteronomy 14:19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 14 in context

Scripture Focus

19And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
Deuteronomy 14:19

Biblical Context

Deuteronomy 14:19 states that every creeping thing that flies is unclean and not to be eaten.

Neville's Inner Vision

That simple line speaks to the life of your inner world. The 'creeping things that flieth' are not beasts in a market but thoughts and images that drift through your awareness—fleeting, insistent, and unworthy of feasting your attention. They are labeled 'unclean' not to shame you, but to alert you: you become what you consume in imagination. If you feed yourself on these unclean ideas, you build a consciousness that cannot partake of higher nourishment. When you declare them unclean, you create a clear boundary, not to deny life, but to preserve holy appetite for the higher now. The law serves as a discipline of attention: separate the impulse from your I AM, and you stop letting it govern your reality. As you resist feeding on fear, doubt, or petty craving, you authorize a feast of purified consciousness—your true hunger for love, abundance, and peace. Remember, God is the I AM within; what you consistently allow into your mind determines what you experience.

Practice This Now

Assume the role of the I AM and declare, 'I feed only on thoughts that elevate and heal.' In a brief revision, imagine turning away from the creeping, flying thoughts and letting them disappear; then feel the inner banquet fill with peace, abundance, and clarity.
