The Vine Bends to Water
Ezekiel 17:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
A great eagle symbolizes a source of life and power, and the vine leans toward it to be watered, signaling reliance on a force outside itself for sustenance.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Ezekiel’s symbol, you are the vine and the eagle the image of an outward power your mind may worship for security. Notice that the vine does not rebel but seeks water from the eagle’s furrows—a sign that, in your present state of consciousness, you have allowed your life to be nourished by an external source rather than by your own inner life. Neville’s teaching invites you to reinterpret this as a call to turn your attention inward. The I AM—the awareness in which you dwell—can become the water that sustains your growth. When you assume that the life you seek is already flowing through you, the perceived separation dissolves and the vine’s roots find their true moisture in the life-Source within. Providence then guides your steps as you imagine consciousness feeding your branches from the center that you are, not from a distant empire of circumstance. Trust that your inner alignment draws the outer events that water and support you, and you will return to your own kingdom.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine the vine in your chest bending toward the eagle of outer power. Feel the water of life rise from your own I AM and nourish every branch.
