Inner Judgment of States
Ezekiel 34:20-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 34 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God says He will judge between the fat cattle and the lean because oppressive force scattered the diseased. The verse points to accountability and restored order.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the scene as your inner court where the I AM must judge two rival states of consciousness: the fat, abundant energy rightly stewarded, and the lean, neglected energy longing to be heard. The 'thrust with side and with shoulder' represents your imagined power pressed outward in domination—attempts to control others, to prove yourself, to force outcomes. The 'diseased' thoughts are the illnesses you refuse to heal, the lack you pretend is not there. When you neglect to tend both, you scatter pieces of life—relationships, health, purpose—into confusion. The Lord GOD, the I AM within, does not condemn to punish, but to correct, guiding you to align power with mercy. Your awareness can witness the conflict, choose a higher function, and turn scattering into coherence. The judgment becomes a turning inward: you recognize that true abundance arises when power serves life rather than personal pride. Imagine yourself as the judge and shepherd of your inner flock, and know that inner harmony will reflect outwardly when you revise with love, forgive, and claim responsibility. The call is practical: revise the stance that uses force, and cultivate a steady, compassionate use of energy.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and assume the state 'I am the discerner and guardian of my inner flock.' Visualize the fat and lean cattle harmonizing under the I AM's compassionate leadership, and revise any impulse to dominate into responsible stewardship.
