Wilderness Worship and I AM
Exodus 8:25-29 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Pharaoh asks them to worship in the land; Moses refuses, insisting true worship requires going into the wilderness to sacrifice as commanded. Moses and Aaron press for obedience while Pharaoh's deceit is exposed, and the deliverance depends on aligning with the divine order.
Neville's Inner Vision
Pharaoh in this scene is a state of consciousness that would have worship stay in the lands of appearances. Moses and Aaron are the I AM awakening within you, insisting that true sacrifice cannot be performed at the altar of comfort or social approval. The wilderness you are asked to enter is not a distant place, but a change of inner posture—a three days' journey away from the old ego's demands toward the command of God within. The 'abomination of the Egyptians' is the counterfeit worship born of attachment to forms—images of success, lineage, or security. By choosing the wilderness altar, you declare that awareness is the temple that matters. Pharaoh’s offer to let you go, ‘not very far,’ is the fear clinging to the familiar; yet the I AM knows that you leave bondage only when you renounce the seen world and embrace the unseen law. Prayer becomes interior negotiation, a revision of belief until the swarms of distraction dissolve. In this inner alignment, the Presence of God becomes tangible, and what seemed external shifts to reveal the truth of your kingdom within.
Practice This Now
Assume the state: 'I worship the LORD my God in the wilderness of my consciousness.' Feel the inner altar rise; revise any need for the land; hold the vision until the swarms vanish.
