Inner Priesthood Of Awareness
Ezekiel 44:23-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 44 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezekiel 44:23-24 speaks of priests who teach the difference between holy and profane, judge by divine judgments, keep divine laws, and hallow the sabbath; it points to inner discernment and true worship.
Neville's Inner Vision
Ezekiel 44:23-24 reveals that the priests are not distant clerics but the inner states of your own consciousness—the teachers and judges of how you live. The holy and the profane become, in your mind, two moods of awareness: the holy is the I AM when attention is united with truth; the profane is every thought that denies wholeness or feeds fear. When the text says they judge according to My judgments, it is inviting you to align every decision with divine law within—the law of love, clarity, and integrity. To hallow the sabbath is to promise rest in the Presence, a deliberate pause from unconscious striving, so that imagination can work freely and you can feel the reality of what you desire as already true. You are the temple, the priest, and the governor of its life; once you accept the authority of your own I AM, the outer world becomes the proof of the inner alignment. Practice discernment and watch how inner decisions become outward order.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and silently declare: I am the awareness that judges all thoughts; I assume the holy as my standard and revise the profane until it yields to wholeness. Feel it real that the inner sabbath is kept now, and imagination is free to manifest in harmony.
