Laying Idols Before the I AM
Ezekiel 6:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse presents a judgment where dead bodies of Israel are laid before idols, and bones are scattered around altars. It portrays the exposure of idol worship and the consequences of turning to false gods.
Neville's Inner Vision
Ez 6:5 is not a history lesson but a mirror held before your inner world. The dead carcasses are the stale, lifeless thoughts and habits you have treated as if they were alive; the idols are the pictures you worship for security, status, or identity. When the I AM—your undivided awareness—turns its gaze, those cherished fictions crumble and the scattered bones reveal the truth: nothing but presence remains where you once trusted images. This is not punishment but alignment: where you believed in separate pictures, consciousness reveals unity. Your inner altar becomes a field of light where old pictures are laid out, examined, and displaced by truth. You are the I AM, unchanged by idols, able to revive life by dwelling in the one state of awareness. The verse invites you to assume a new center—that you are the life that revives itself when you refuse to give your experiential sovereignty to imagined idols.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine the dead beliefs placed before a radiant I AM altar. Then scatter their bones and affirm: I AM, and only I AM, reviving life within me.
