Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 28:65-67 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 28 in context

Scripture Focus

65And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:

66And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

67In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

Deuteronomy 28:65-67

Biblical Context

The passage declares that in foreign lands there will be no ease; fear, doubt, and sorrow fill the mind, with life hanging in doubt and day and night filled with longing. It highlights how inner fears shape outer experience and that rest is not found in external conditions.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this moment the text is not dictating external fate but revealing a state of consciousness. The trembling heart, the failing eyes, and the sorrow of mind arise from identifying with a lack-centered story. Your true nature is the I AM—awareness that remains untouched by appearances. The walls, the nations, and the fear are symbols your imagination uses to show you a mental habit of insecurity. To awaken, refuse identify with the fearful character and instead dwell as the watcher, the self that knows God as life. When you claim the finished state—rest in the I AM—you dissolve the sense of life being in doubt. Morning and evening become opportunities to anchor trust rather than to bargain with fear. The eyes see only the outward scene; the inner viewer remains calm, and as this inner shift occurs, the world shifts to reflect your renewed conviction. By living from that inner truth, you reimagine your entire scene as already secured in God.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and repeat, 'I now assume the state of the I AM, secure and at rest.' Feel the heart quiet, the breath steady, and permit the sense of being cared for by an unseen, unending life.
