Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 30:2-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 30 in context

Scripture Focus

2And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;

3That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.

4If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:

5And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

6And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

Deuteronomy 30:2-6

Biblical Context

The text calls you to turn back to the LORD with all your heart and soul. If you follow, God promises mercy, gathering, and a heart that loves the Lord and thus truly lives.

Neville's Inner Vision

All the verses reveal the simple truth: you are a state of consciousness, and the I AM within is the true God you serve. The return is not a distant journey but a turning of your inner attention back to that God-state; obedience is aligning your decisions with the voice that arises from within. When you assume you are already returned, your captivity dissolves; the nations are the scattered fears of the mind, and God gathers you by drawing all its fragments into one radiant awareness. The promised land is the inner climate of abundance, health, and vitality that your conscious belief creates. Circumcision of the heart means shedding belief patterns that separate you from love; let the heart be tuned to the divine intention. If you dwell in this state, you live as a constant expression of the I AM, and life manifests in harmony with your renewed fidelity.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, declare, 'I am the I AM returned to God within me.' Then feel your heart opening and sense the land of plenty already yours, staying with that feeling for a few minutes.
