Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 39:17-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 39 in context

Scripture Focus

17And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.

18Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.

19And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

20Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel 39:17-20

Biblical Context

The passage calls all creatures to gather at a great sacrifice on Israel's mountains, so they may eat the flesh and drink the blood of powerful beings as a symbolic, communal feast. It ends with fullness at the Lord's table and the gathering of warlike power.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this vision, the Lord’s call is a map of your inner life. The birds and beasts are your thoughts and emotions; the great sacrifice is your decision to turn your attention toward the truth of your I AM. On the mountains of Israel—the solid ground of awareness—you host a feast that consumes old appetites for power and identity. The flesh of the mighty and the blood of the princes symbolize the stories of dominance you once fed on; to be 'drunk' on them is to momentarily lose balance. When you declare that you shall be filled at your table, you are not serving others’ images but inviting your imagination to supply every nourishment. The feast becomes a discipline of consciousness: as you imagine fullness, you align inner movements with the I AM, and you become sovereign over your reality rather than a captive to circumstance.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are already seated at the Lord's table of awareness; feel fullness in your body as if it were real. Then revise a current lack by affirming: I am nourished, I am complete, and my imagination now feeds my world.
