I Am the Lord Within
Deuteronomy 5:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Deuteronomy 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God declares He is your God who delivered you from Egypt, symbolizing liberation from bondage. It establishes a personal covenant identity rooted in inner freedom.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's psychology, Deuteronomy 5:6 reads as a revelation not of history but of your inner state. When the verse states I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, it points to the I AM you are, the self-aware mind that has already delivered you from every mental bondage. Egypt stands for ingrained patterns, fear, limitation - an oppressive story you once accepted as real. The exodus is your decision to withdraw attention from that story and to identify with the liberator inside: the I AM who creates and preserves you. You do not beg for freedom; you assume the state of freedom and let it redefine your experiences. As you dwell in the feeling of being led by an unseen yet complete Power, you reverse the illusion of bondage by treating the present you as the rescuer and guide. The text invites a concrete revision: declare here and now I am the LORD thy God within me, and let the mental landscape rearrange to reflect liberty.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state I AM the Lord within me, who delivered me. Feel it as present, and let bondage yield to the imagined liberty.
