Inner Offerings Ezra 3:5
Ezra 3:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezra 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezra 3:5 describes continual offerings: the burnt offering, the new moons, and the set feasts. It also includes every freewill offering presented to the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the one who reads, Ezra's page is not a record of stone and ritual, but of states of consciousness. The continual burnt offering is not an animal slain in space, but a sustained act of attention—an inner devotion kept burning by your deliberate focus. The new moons and set feasts symbolize recurring cycles of renewal and awe within the mind that is I AM. When you live as the I AM, every outer feast becomes an inner celebration, and every voluntary gift—freewill offering—reveals your willingness to let the divine move as your own awareness. The temple becomes the inner sanctuary where you place your attention, not on lack or fear, but on the presence that sustains you. Thus, these offerings are not compliance with rules but invitations to remain awake to the truth that you are God in expression. The moment you accept that you are the living I AM, you are already offering, by nature, the continuous flame of being, freely given to the LORD of your inner universe.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, assume you are the I AM, and imagine yourself offering a continuous flame of gratitude to the inner presence. When doubt arises, revise it to I AM that I AM and feel the flame burning brighter, renewing your inner cycles.
