Nets, Wealth, and Inner Victory

Habakkuk 1:16-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Habakkuk 1 in context

Scripture Focus

16Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.
17Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
Habakkuk 1:16-17

Biblical Context

The passage depicts a people who worship the tools that feed their power—nets and drag—and use that wealth to slay nations. It asks whether such abundance justifies ongoing conquest.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the stillness of your mind, Habakkuk speaks as your inner critic and teacher. The net and the drag are not external weapons but habitual thoughts and images you trust to secure satisfaction. When wealth is identified with those images, the body and mind become guardians of possession, and the apparent abundance feeds a coercive energy that seeks to dominate inner and outer territories alike. Neville’s method invites you to reverse this identification: you are not supported by nets; you are the I AM, the consciousness that makes all being. Wealth is a byproduct of a lived state of awareness, not a trophy won through effort or coercion. By assuming the truth that you already possess true abundance within, you release the need to conquer others or to sustain yourself through force. As you revise and feel this new state, the inner violence dissolves and a serene, creative power arises that blesses all aspects of life, including those you once imagined you must defeat.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling: I am the I AM, and abundance flows from my consciousness, not from nets. Revise the image of wealth as a tool for domination into a radiant inner supply that blesses all.
