Inner Mourning and Self-Judgment
Ezekiel 7:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse depicts outward signs of mourning—sackcloth, horror on faces, and bald heads—acting as symbols of collective judgment and humility before impending consequences. It also points to an inner posture of repentance and accountability.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner theatre of your life, assume you are the I AM waking to the truth that your inner state fashions your outward world. The sackcloth is a shift in consciousness—an humble clothing of the self that lets go of vanity. The horror is awareness of misalignment between thought and reality; the faces show the mind’s admission that its old imaginings no longer fit. The baldness stands for shedding attachments to former identities and stories. When you accept responsibility for your inner state, the outer signs follow—not through fear but through the steady power of belief. Do not chase change in the world; revise your assumption until it feels real, and let the sign come from within. Your present condition can be seen as sackcloth if you choose humility and willingness to transform, allowing fear to reveal the new truth and the old self to fall away.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine you are girded with sackcloth, letting the horror of past thoughts wash away as you affirm, I AM the reality here. Then revise any limiting belief by declaring, I am the I AM, and this awareness now fashions a new, present state of wholeness.
