The Covenant Here and Now
Deuteronomy 5:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Deuteronomy 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The Lord's covenant is made with this generation here and now, not with our ancestors. It is an invitation to align with present awareness and live from the promised end in the current moment.
Neville's Inner Vision
Here the Lord is not your distant god but your immediate awareness. The covenant is not a relic of ancestral times but a living agreement you forge in your present consciousness. Horeb, the mount of encounter, is the inner ground of your awareness where you consent to the truth that you are the I AM, the subject who imagines and thereby creates. To hear that the covenant was made with us, not with our fathers, is to realize that the entire law of God rests in your current state of being. The 'us' who are alive this day is the you that can feel, decide, and remain in a particular mood of mind. Obedience becomes inner alignment: you choose to feel as if the thing desired is already done, you imagine from the end, and you persist in that state until it births outward signs. The present covenant becomes your habitual reality, not a distant promise. By living from the state of covenant—the feeling of fullness here and now—you rewrite lineage into personal destiny. You are the one who activates the promised land by conscious assumption.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already in covenant—feel the state now, as if this day you have what you seek, and linger there for a few minutes.
