Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 28:2-5 - Mystical Bible 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:

3Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

4With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

5By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

Ezekiel 28:2-5

Biblical Context

Ez 28:2-5 shows a ruler whose heart is lifted up, claiming to be a god, yet is only a man. The passage exposes how wealth and wisdom become outward signs of an inner misalignment when seen as ultimate power.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your Ezekiel passage points to a throne set in the mind. The prince of Tyre embodies a lifted heart that proclaims I am God and sits in the seat of God in the seas, yet the scripture tells you the truth: you are a man, not God. In Neville terms, consciousness alone is king and imagination is the power by which life is formed. Wealth, wisdom, and even secret knowledge are not external gods but signs of the state you entertain within. When you identify with the I AM behind form, the urge to lord it over others drops away and the lure of riches loses its control. You are not denying gifts; you are reinterpreting them as expressions of your inner alignment. Now practice: assume the state of God as awareness, revise any belief in separation, and feel it real. Persist in that felt sense until your inner throne remains steady and outward events begin answering from that one, indivisible consciousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: close your eyes, acknowledge I AM as your true ruler, and repeat I am awareness, I am one with all; feel the alignment in your chest and dwell there for several minutes daily.
