The Inner Tyre Prince

Ezekiel 28:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezekiel 28 in context

Scripture Focus

2Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
Ezekiel 28:2

Biblical Context

The prince of Tyre proclaims himself a god, but Ezekiel states he is a man, highlighting that prideful self-exaltation does not change true identity.

Neville's Inner Vision

This passage uses the Tyre prince as a symbol of an inner attitude—an egoic heart that declares it sits in the seat of God. The so-called god-claim is really a misidentified self, a belief that power and divinity reside in a separate, exalted person. Neville teaches that God is the I AM—the undivided awareness in which all things appear and disappear. When you identify with the phrase 'I am God,' you cut yourself off from the simple truth that you are the I AM perceiver, and all power flows from that awareness, not from a lifted ego. The cure is to revise this self-conception and align with the true state: you are the I AM, the eternal presence that knows, without striving, that you exist. In that alignment, what seems to be external rulership becomes a natural demonstration of inner harmony, and the false god of pride dissolves into the radiant actuality of being. The real work is inward: awaken to your oneness with the I AM, and allow power to manifest as effortless presence rather than as boastful claim.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and assume the feeling of the I AM as your only reality; then revise the boast 'I am God' into 'I am aware, the I AM in whom all is manifested.'
