Bound Tongue, Inner Vision
Ezekiel 3:25-26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezekiel is told that the people will bind him and make his tongue mute, so he cannot rebuke the rebellious house; this symbolizes the need for inner restraint before speaking.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the I AM within, Ezekiel’s bindings are not punishment but a discipline of perception. The outer crowd reflects a state of consciousness that will not hear unless the inner witness speaks calmly. The binding invites you to quiet the impulse to judge or rebuke, so a clearer sense of truth can emerge. The mute tongue protects the message from being distorted by ego and allows a higher guidance to flow through when needed. Perseverance and faithfulness arise as you continually align with the inner message, even in the face of opposition. Through quiet endurance you discover that suffering and trials refine discernment, teaching you when to speak and what to say. This inner stillness is not passivity but the preparation of the prophet within, whose authority comes from the I AM. You are not failing; you are aligning with the consciousness that creates reality, letting the inner light shape outcomes rather than outer contention.
Practice This Now
Sit in a quiet place, close your mouth, and imagine bands binding you. Silently affirm I AM guiding you, and wait for inner direction before speaking.
