Inner Bread of Ezekiel
Ezekiel 4:9-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezekiel is instructed to endure a long, symbolic rationing of bread and water, representing a disciplined inner state during exile. The act ties outward details—measured food and water—to the life of awareness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Let Ezekiel’s bread be seen as your inner diet. The wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and fitches are the many states of consciousness you allow into your awareness, gathered into a single vessel by your attention. To lie on your side for 390 days is to practice a steady, non-resistive attention—an extended stillness where your identity watches sensations without becoming them. The bread you eat by weight, twenty shekels a day, is a precise intake of thought-energy: you choose a fixed amount of mental imagery and belief each day, neither starving nor overindulging. To drink water by measure, a sixth part of an hin, teaches you to sample life in measured sips, letting consciousness rest rather than churn. In this inner famine, you are not punished but trained; you learn that your I AM can reorder appetite and experience. If you revise now, you can imagine that the famine dissolves as your imagination feeds you with an abundance of peace, clarity, and creative power— the kingdom within, arriving by consistent, deliberate feeling.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the I AM is the governor of your inner pantry; in stillness, taste a daily bread you choose and feel its nourishment filling every part of you. Let that feeling last a minute and carry you into your day.
