From Oppression to Inner Justice
Ezekiel 22:29 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Verse 22:29 declares that the land has oppressed the poor, the needy, and the stranger, through robbery and mistreatment. It condemns this injustice and the neglect of vulnerable people.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the inner eye, Ezekiel’s judgment is not about distant rulers but about your own state of consciousness. The land represents your current mental climate; oppression and robbery are inner movements born of fear, scarcity, and control. The 'poor' and the 'needy' are the tender aspects of yourself—qualities that must be fed, protected, and given rightful place. The 'stranger' is the unfamiliarity inside you—parts you have not welcomed or understood. When you allow these aspects to be suppressed or exploited, you live in a world that mirrors oppression in external terms. But your I AM—the God within—does not punish; it reveals what you are imagining. So, shift your assumption: you are the ruler of this inner land, and justice, dignity, and love are your natural conditions. Imagine a scene in which no one is oppressed, where the poor and the stranger are welcomed as kin, and every act of governance in your mind aligns with compassion. Stand in that state until it feels real. Imagination creates reality; by dwelling in the feeling of justice now, you rewrite the outer scenes.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise your inner city: see the stranger being welcomed, the poor being provided for, and yourself declaring, 'I am the I AM of justice now.' Feel the abundance and safety as if it were real, then carry that feeling into your day.
