Neville Goddard on Exodus 40:14-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 40 in context

Scripture Focus

14And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:

15And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.

Exodus 40:14-15

Biblical Context

Exodus 40:14-15 describes clothing the sons and anointing them to minister as priests, signifying a consecration that endures. Applied inward, it speaks of your inner attire and calling to serve the divine presence within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Assume the state of being the priest in your life. The sons in coats symbolize inner qualities clothed in order and reverence; the coat is your disciplined perception ready to act. The anointing, like their father's, is the felt I AM recognizing and consecrating what you now accept as true. When you dwell in this state, you are not performing rites but embodying the divine office; you become the instrument through which God acts in your daily world. To call it an 'everlasting priesthood' is to claim a timeless consciousness always available the moment you choose it. Your true self is the priest within, ministering to the divine presence you bear, and the outer world will align with that inner posture.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine you are being clothed in radiant priestly robes and anointing oil; feel the texture as a real state of consciousness. Then declare, I AM the priest ministering now, and carry that inner office into daily life.
