The Word Within You

Deuteronomy 30:11-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 30 in context

Scripture Focus

11For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
12It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
13Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
14But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
Deuteronomy 30:11-14

Biblical Context

The commandment is not hidden or far away; the word is very near—within your mouth and heart—so you may hear it and do it now.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Moses' command, I answer: the law is not a distant code to fetch; it is a state of consciousness you already inhabit. The 'word' is not a distant syllable but a living decree formed in imagination and spoken from the I Am that you are. When you hear, you act; when you feel, you do. The 'heaven' and 'sea' images fall away because there is no outside law to obtain—the only law is your inner conviction that you already stand in the commandment. The verse is telling you that the commandment is not a discovery but a remembered assumption. If you permit it, the word pours into your breath and becomes your next action; every thought and feeling that aligns with the desired state is the generation of its form. Your mouth and heart are the two gates through which the law is spoken into the world. Therefore, rest in the I Am that speaks within you, and revise any sense of distance by affirming: I have heard the word, I am it, I do it now.

Practice This Now

Practice: close your eyes, assume in the present tense that the inner commandment governs your life; speak the word softly in your own mouth and feel it real for five minutes, then act from that state.
