Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 16:27-29 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 16 in context

Scripture Focus

27Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.

28Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.

29Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.

Ezekiel 16:27-29

Biblical Context

Ezekiel describes divine judgment as famine and external enmity, illustrating how inner unfaithfulness translates into troubled outward conditions. The text warns that seeking fulfillment in externals cannot satisfy.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your Ezekiel is your own mind. When you read 'I have stretched out my hand and diminished thy food,' hear it as a shift in your inner state, not a decree over an external nation. The 'daughters of the Philistines' and the others are personifications of thoughts that hate your true nature—doubts, fear, craving—shaming your former ways. The repeated 'unsatisfied' is your inner protest against chasing externals; you have sought supply in Assyrians, Canaan, Chaldea, and still found no rest. The remedy is to reverse the dream: know that the I AM within you is the true pantry, the source of every meal, every joy. Accept no other governor of your life; align your wants with the divine presence, and the outward world will mirror that inner abundance. You are not being judged by distant powers; you are choosing the state through which you perceive all events. Stand in the one reality that never wanes—the consciousness of God within—and watch the hunger fade as you feel the steady stream of supply arising from within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare 'I am the I AM within me, my supply is divine,' then feel a sense of fullness flooding your being for a few minutes; observe any shift in outer conditions as you hold that state.
