Horeb Stripped Inner Worship
Exodus 33:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 33 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by Mount Horeb, symbolizing shedding outward adornment before an encounter with God.
Neville's Inner Vision
Exodus speaks of Horeb as the place where Israel laid aside their ornaments, a symbol not of punishment but of mind-set. The inner truth is that the ornaments are not enemies but beliefs you wear about who you are. In this light, Horeb is your current state of consciousness—a quiet mountain where you decide to deny the validity of every ornament that says you are less-than God’s idea of you. When you read this verse, ask: what ornament am I still clinging to? A label, a role, a fear, a wealth of opinions? The act of stripping is an act of permission to the I AM to govern. You do not remove them to prove you can be humble; you remove them to reveal the reality that you are God’s image, complete and present now. If you dwell on that truth and imagine the removal already done, the world you see will reflect that inner release. The outer scene rearranges to fit the inner portrait you cast by intention and feeling.
Practice This Now
Imagine yourself at Horeb, stripping one ornament you identify with, and feel the release as you declare, 'I am the I AM.' Then revise your sense of self to that immutable, inner reality.
