Inner City Service
Ezekiel 48:19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 48 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse states that those who serve the city do so from all the tribes of Israel, meaning inner service comes from every facet of consciousness working together.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner theater of your mind, the city you serve is your life, and those who tend it are the faculties of your soul. The phrase from Ezekiel teaches that service is not the act of one trait in isolation, but the labor of every tribe within—justice, compassion, order, courage, creativity—flowing through a single will. When you imagine yourself as the I AM, you awaken to the truth that the city's well-being rests on unity of states, not on a single clever thought. Each tribe contributes its heat: the prophetic vision (insight), the priestly care (mercy), the craftsman discipline (work), the shepherd love (neighbor-love). As you entertain the impression of unity, you become the consciousness that serves the city from all sides. The inner arena responds to your assumption: you are the city's steward, and the tribes within you converge to sustain it. The result is a felt shift in your sensation of self, your life becomes a cooperative enterprise, with every part aligned to the same aim, the city thriving because you have chosen to serve from wholeness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling 'I serve the city from all my tribes.' Visualize every inner faculty gathering around a radiant inner city and tending it, while you hold that unity for a minute each day.
