Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 32:36-38 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 32 in context

Scripture Focus

36For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.

37And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,

38Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.

Deuteronomy 32:36-38

Biblical Context

God judges His people and repents for His servants as their power fades. Idols cannot save them, and external sacrifices prove hollow when true protection lies in the I AM.

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 36–38 speaks to the inner law of consciousness: the LORD who judges is the I AM within you. When you see that your former power is gone, you begin to notice that the idols—rocks, rituals, and demands you believed would save you—are only projections of your mind. The question “Where are their gods?” becomes a gentle invitation to turn away from external props and return to the steady rock of awareness. The fat eaten by sacrifices and the wine drunk in offerings are energies spent on substitute images; releasing them is not surrender but return to your true center. In this reading, judgment and repentance are inner revisions: you re-script belief, you revise what you hold as protection, and you rest in the truth that your security is the I AM. As you align with this inner state, outer supports lose their grip, and you discover you remain—unchanged by the world—because you are the living consciousness that endures.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, I am the I AM; I judge and renew my life from within. See the old idols dissolve in a bright light and rest in the indestructible rock of awareness, feeling its protection as real.
