Inner Covenant Revealed
Ezekiel 16:21-22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
These verses condemn idolatry and the profaning of what is sacred. They highlight a forgetting of youth and innocence amid abominations.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your inner life is the theater where Ezekiel speaks. 'My children' are not external offspring but the child-like powers and ideas of your own consciousness—faith, daring, compassion, imagination. When you identify with fear or attach yourself to outer symbols, you deliver these inner children to a fiery trial of belief, as if they must pass through fire to prove their worth. This is the mindset Ezekiel calls abomination: worshiping appearances instead of the unseen reality. The 'days of thy youth' refer to the original state of innocence and power when you knew yourself as the I AM, before oppression by limiting stories. Do not imagine God judges you as a distant judge; you, the I AM, are simply waking to the truth that you have never left your birthright. The passage invites a reversal: remember and restore your inner worship to the Living Self, not to idols. By choosing to dwell in imagination as the reality, you reverse the separation and transform the so-called sacrifice into purification by awareness. In this light, you turn away from external threats and claim your oneness.
Practice This Now
Assume the I AM is here now; revise the scene by declaring, I am the one who passes through no fire. Feel the reality of your timeless, innocent self and let that feeling erase the memory of sacrifice.
