Neville Goddard on Haggai 1:5-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Haggai 1 in context

Scripture Focus

5Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.

6Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

Haggai 1:5-6

Biblical Context

Haggai 1:5-6 invites you to look at your inner state, for outer results lag when your inner disposition is not aligned with divine abundance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, Haggai does not threaten history; he invites you to observe the state within. 'Consider your ways' is not a rebuke of labor, but a summons to align the inner man with the divine law of sufficiency. You sow much in the world and yet bring in little because your inner posture is in lack; you drink and are not satisfied because your imagination has been sowing dreams in a parched field. The wages you earn become a bag with holes because you imagine yourself separate from the source. The I AM within you, the only real you, operates by consciousness. When you awaken to the truth that you are the cause and the effect of your world, you will experience the same discipline as the prophet describes: inner order precedes outer order. The circumstance is not the cause; it is the effect of your inner state. Change your consciousness, and the outer world rearranges to reflect the new texture of your inner life.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: close your eyes, breathe into the I AM within, and assume the feeling of abundance as your present reality. Repeat I am supplied now until the sense of lack dissolves.
