Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 36:25-26 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 36 in context

Scripture Focus

25Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

26A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

Ezekiel 36:25-26

Biblical Context

Ezekiel speaks of God cleansing His people with water and granting a new heart and spirit, replacing a hard, stony heart with a tender, responsive one.

Neville's Inner Vision

View Ezekiel 36:25-26 as a map of inner transformation. The cleansing water is the pure awareness that washes away fear, attachments, and idolatries—those inner idols you have branded as you. When you imagine yourself as cleansed, you cease defining yourself by past failures or loyalties and step into a new state of being. The 'new heart' and 'new spirit' are states of consciousness you assume: a heart that remains teachable and pliant, and a spirit that moves with inspiration rather than clinging to control. The 'stony heart' is the obstinacy of ego; the 'heart of flesh' is a living, responsive awareness ready to perceive new possibility. Your imagination is the creative power here, transforming the interior until it becomes your exterior. By dwelling in this renewed state, you align with purity, integrity, and renewal, allowing external conditions to reflect the inner change. The verse invites a conscious revision of self-concept until it matches the reality of renewal from within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine clean water sprinkling over you, dissolving old idols and filth. Then feel and declare inwardly: I am clean; I have a new heart and a new spirit; my heart is flesh now, receptive to life.
