Inner Wood, Outer Purpose
Ezekiel 15:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 15 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezekiel 15:3 asks whether wood should be used for work or simply to hang a vessel, highlighting the tension between practical utility and idol-like use of form.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the language of the awakened self, the wood stands for your state of consciousness—the raw material of your thoughts and beliefs. The question is not about timber but about how you employ your inner resources. If you hoard the wood to prop up external forms, you are hanging a vessel on a pin—worshiping appearances rather than truth. When you align wood with work, you are using consciousness in service to creation and order. The inner prophet—your I AM—asks to be the carpenter of your life, shaping events through disciplined imagination rather than clinging to empty forms. See that every belief can either be a tool for a genuine task or a fetish of the visible. Decide now to reserve your inner material for constructive acts, and feel the reality of your I AM shaping a life of purposeful order.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume this wood is for a real, constructive task you choose today, and revise any attachment to form by feeling the I AM actively at work shaping your life.
