Neville Goddard on Exodus 8:29 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 8 in context

Scripture Focus

29And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.

Exodus 8:29

Biblical Context

Moses plans to entreat the LORD to remove the flies from Pharaoh, his servants, and the people, while warning Pharaoh not to deceitfully withhold the people from going to sacrifice to the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the swarms are inner disturbances: restless thoughts, doubts, and compulsions that keep the old Pharaoh alive in your mind. Moses stepping out to entreat the LORD mirrors the soul turning from the old consciousness and inviting the I AM to act. In Neville’s map, God is not somewhere out there but the awareness you inhabit. When you imagine and feel the LORD answering—the flies departing—you are practicing that your world bends to your inner decree. The warning not to deal deceitfully any more is a summons to stop withholding your sacrifice of praise from becoming your lived reality. True worship is not a ritual you perform; it is the alignment of your thoughts and feelings with the truth of your being. Persist in the assumed presence of the I AM, and the flies depart, the land is freed, and you step into a fresher relation to life. This is not about externals but about cultivating a consciousness that discards the old deceit and honors the divine within as your primary activity.

Practice This Now

Assume you have already stepped out of the old mind and that the swarms are dissolving. Revise any remaining thoughts as mere flies and feel-it-real the I AM as your present, governing reality.
