Lies That Sad the Righteous

Ezekiel 13:22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezekiel 13 in context

Scripture Focus

22Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
Ezekiel 13:22

Biblical Context

Lies make the heart of the righteous sad and hold the wicked in their ways, not by God's doing, but by deceptive promises that pretend life. The message exposes how falsehoods distort outcomes and obstruct repentance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Ezekiel's warning, the lie is not merely spoken deception but the habitual story you tell yourself about life. You, as the I AM, may imagine a future that would justify staying in a wrong path; such imagining saddens the righteous state within you and strengthens the impulse to stay wicked by promising life where there is none. The true God of your being does not delight in sadness; the I AM is the living present that never condemns but reveals what you have accepted as real. Therefore, the antidote is not reforming others but reforming your inner scene: refuse the lie and return to the original assumption of life as well-being. Imagination creates your condition; if you insist on a future that rewards wrongdoing, you build that future. Instead, assume the opposite: right now, I am the living perception of truth, and every action aligns with that truth. Feel the reality of your own wholeness and let the image dissolve the lie that life depends on deceit. In so doing, you free both the righteous heart and the wicked impulse from false promises.

Practice This Now

Practise: when you hear the tempting lie that life will come by deceit, revise the scene by declaring, 'I am the I AM; this lie is unreal; I now assume the fulfilled state with feeling.' Then spend a minute imagining a concrete moment of perfect alignment.
