Inner Waters at Rephidim
Exodus 17:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The people travel under God's command and reach a place with no water to drink. This scarcity tests their trust and obedience.
Neville's Inner Vision
Israel's caravan mirrors your inner life, moved by the I AM within toward a Rephidim—an inner resting place where lack becomes your mirror. The sense of no water is not a punishment but a moment of inner readiness: you are invited to recognize that the very state declaring 'no' to sustenance is the gate through which your awareness passes, from mere circumstance to consciousness. In this teaching, the commandment of the LORD equals a fixed assumption of supply; when you stand in that assumption, the outer scene begins to rearrange itself. Scarcity challenges faith, yet faith is simply persistent present-tense thinking—a feeling that the source of life flows from within, not from a canal or caravan. The crisis is dynamic: you revise the belief that your life depends on external water and instead dwell in the awareness that you are always sustained by the I AM. The journey ends, not with water from a well, but with your mind realizing it is already quenched by divine presence.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume you are already supplied with water, and feel it in your mouth and throat. Repeat, 'I am the I AM, I have all I need now,' until scarcity dissolves into abundance.
