Inner Judgment, Outer Knowing

Ezekiel 29:8-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezekiel 29 in context

Scripture Focus

8Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
9And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
Ezekiel 29:8-9

Biblical Context

God declares judgment on Egypt’s land and its people so they may know the Lord is the true sovereign; the issue is attachment to external ownership (the river) and the necessity of recognizing the I AM within.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Ezekiel 29:8-9, the land of Egypt represents a mind convinced that life flows from outward possessions—‘the river is mine.’ The sword that God brings is not a future weapon but the piercing discernment of consciousness that exposes those false claims. When the mind is confronted with desolation, it is not punishment but revelation: life’s source is not external sovereignty but the I AM within. As you entertain the truth that the LORD is the I AM, the need to possess land or river dissolves; the inner state remains intact, sovereign, and knowing. The desolation clears old pictures of power, leaving a luminous awareness that you are the mover of your inner world, not the captive of external elements. Knowledge arises not as judgment from outside but as alignment with the true ruler within—the I AM that holds all, including the river, as expression of its own life. You awaken to the reality that you are the inner sovereign, and the outer forms recede into their right place as images within consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare: I am the LORD of this inner land, and I own no external possession. Feel the stillness as the belief 'the river is mine' dissolves.
