Inner Covenant of Love

Ezekiel 16:8-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezekiel 16 in context

Scripture Focus

8Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.
9Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
Ezekiel 16:8-9

Biblical Context

The passage depicts God declaring covenant, covering nakedness, washing away blood, and anointing with oil, signaling belonging, purification, and restoration.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville Goddard mode, the I AM—your living consciousness—passes by and recognizes a state that is time of love. This is not external drama but an inner recognition: you are already claimed by the highest Self. The spreading of the skirt is the aura of protective awareness that covers your sense of lack, as you accept that you are beloved by the I AM. The covenant is a decisive inner alignment: you claim this life and identity as yours, not by striving but by choosing to identify with the divine I AM. The washing with water and removal of blood symbolize shedding old self-images, guilt, and fear—cleansing through the refreshed realization that you are accepted. The anointing with oil stands for empowerment, wisdom, and renewed vitality poured into your being. In inner terms, this scene is your current state: you are owned by the I AM, purified in purity and loyalty, and restored to active participation in divine life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and assume the feeling: I am claimed by the I AM; my past is washed away; I am anointed with healing and purpose. Repeat: 'I belong to the I AM; I am purified and empowered now.'
