Inner Abundance, Divine Presence
Exodus 33:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 33 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Exodus 33:3 states that God will not go with the people in their midst because they are stiff-necked; a land flowing with milk and honey is promised, signaling inner abundance to be accessed.
Neville's Inner Vision
On this page, the 'land flowing with milk and honey' is not a geography but a state of consciousness you enter when you stop insisting on your own way. The I AM—the living God within you—refuses to dwell in the midst of a stiff necked sense of self. Not because you are condemned, but because the old ego cannot sustain the degree of presence you seek. When you cling to fixed opinions, judgments, or self-protective habits, you separate yourself from the immediacy of awareness, and presence withdraws, not to punish, but to invite a revision of how you imagine yourself. The verse invites you to notice where you are inflexible and to practice a gentle alignment: assume you are already where you long to be, feel the I AM as your constant companion, and allow the sense of abundance to rise from within. Imagination creates reality, so when you imagine the divine with you in every step, the 'journey' becomes the inner dwelling place.
Practice This Now
Practice: moment by moment, assume the state I am living in the land of milk and honey within me; revise any stiff necked impulse by saying I am one with the I AM, and feel it real.
