Inner Storehouse of Imagination

Genesis 41:48 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 41 in context

Scripture Focus

48And he gathered up all the food of the seven years, which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field, which was round about every city, laid he up in the same.
Genesis 41:48

Biblical Context

Plain sense: During seven years of plenty, Joseph gathered all the grain and stored it in the cities; the harvest was kept secure to be used later.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, the story is a portrait of your inner economy. The seven years of plenty symbolize a long season of mental wealth—ideas, loves, and strengthened beliefs that your I AM freely generates when it is unstressed and attentive. The act of gathering and laying up the food in the cities is the discipline of conserving this wealth by storing it in distinct stations of consciousness—memory, imagination, attention, belief, gratitude, decision. The cities stand for inner dispositions rather than external places. Providence and Guidance appear as the unseen administrator of your inner ledger, moving events into alignment to preserve your store when outer conditions shift. Your job is to live from the assumption that the supply is already at hand; to revise any impression of lack and to feel it real in the very moment you think of it. As you practice this, you turn the act of producing into the act of preserving, and you awaken the sense that God, the I AM, is the one who gathers the harvest within you, organizing it for use in the days to come.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and, in imagination, place a portion of your inner abundance into a chosen city of your mind (belief, attention, gratitude). Then feel the security of that store, as if it were real now.
