Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 24:19 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 24 in context

Scripture Focus

19When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.

Deuteronomy 24:19

Biblical Context

Deuteronomy 24:19 instructs leaving a forgotten harvest for the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, so that God blesses all your labor.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the field in Deuteronomy is your inner field of consciousness. When you cut down the harvest in awareness and forget a sheaf, do not search for it with grasping need. Instead, loosen your mind and offer that forgotten portion to the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow within you. These figures symbolize neglected aspects of your being: the unknown guest in your mind, the child within who doubts, the grieving self afraid of the future. By leaving a portion for them, you acknowledge that your supply is not finite but alive in God—the I AM that you are. The act reorients your thinking; you stop chasing abundance and begin to recognize that blessing manifests as you include all parts of yourself in your field of awareness. Thus, the blessing of the Lord rests on your hands as you extend generosity inward, and outward results follow as a natural consequence of your restored harmony.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and revise the inner field by declaring, 'I have left a portion of my harvest for the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow within me,' then feel the abundance returning as you sense energy circulating through your hands.
