Neville Goddard on Exodus 10:26 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 10 in context

Scripture Focus

26Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.

Exodus 10:26

Biblical Context

Exodus 10:26 states that the people will take their cattle with them to serve the LORD, leaving nothing behind for worship. It signals that the form of their service will be revealed only when they arrive at the place of worship.

Neville's Inner Vision

These words are not about beasts but about your own inner equipment. The 'cattle' are the faculties you bring into worship—memory, imagination, loyalty, faith, and will. Saying 'our cattle shall go with us' declares a covenant: I bring every power of consciousness into service to the LORD I AM, leaving nothing behind. The insistence on not leaving a hoof behind warns you against a fractional self, a diluted worship. You do not know with what you must serve the LORD until you come thither, until you move in the present conviction that you already serve. The form of service reveals itself in the act of turning awareness toward the I AM and trusting that imagination is the instrument by which you walk into your desired state. In this scene, obedience and faithfulness are not external rites but the inner alignment of your thoughts, feelings, and imaginal acts, done with loyalty to the I AM.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume you already serve the LORD with every inner faculty. Feel the reality of your entire self moving as one instrument to the I AM within.
