Wilderness Fear to Inner Faith
Exodus 14:11-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage portrays the people fearing death in the wilderness and preferring bondage in Egypt, lamenting their move as the only safe option. It mirrors our own inner dramas when we cling to the familiar state of mind rather than step into the unknown.
Neville's Inner Vision
Exodus 14:11-12 is not a history lesson but an inner drama. Egypt is the mind's old state of bondage; the wilderness is the present sense of separation from the I AM. When they cry out for graves, they confess a belief that safety lies in the past, not in the awakening at hand. In Neville's terms, the scene reveals a state you inhabit: fear dressed as fact, the conclusion that you cannot be free. The remedy is to turn the imagination to the end: feel you are already free, here and now. Assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled, revise the story of leaving Egypt by choosing the consciousness that you are safe, guided, and supported by the I AM within. Speak to that I AM and declare, 'I am free now; I have crossed into the land of abundance.' Let the old fear surrender to the awareness of your real status as the one consciousness creating the scene. Persist in feeling it real, and the imagined landscape rearranges itself to match your inner conviction. The moment of fear becomes a doorway to faith when you refuse to identify with the haunting image and instead dwell in the I AM.
Practice This Now
Practice: Close your eyes, assume the end you desire—freedom and safety—now. Repeat 'I am free now' while breathing deeply, imagining you have already crossed into your promised land.
