Inner Covenant Reframes Loammi
Hosea 1:8-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hosea 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse shows a birth followed by God declaring Loammi, 'not my people' and 'I will not be your God,' signaling an inner state of separation within consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's light, Loammi is not a historical verdict but a present inner belief. The prior naming of Loruhamah and the birth of a son mark the appearance of a new pattern in the mine of consciousness: a sense that you are not God’s people, that God will not be yours. This is not punishment but a reflection of a habit of mind that has forgotten its unity with the I AM. The text invites you to recognize that the 'divine words' are the mirroring of your own assumptions. By insisting on separation, you create conditions that feel like exile and far-off covenant, yet such exile is only in consciousness. The power to alter it lies in your present assumption: re-birth the sense that you are, right now, God’s people, and God is your God within you. When you awaken to that unity, the state Loammi loses its charge and a fresh birth—a renewed covenant—arises in awareness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and revise the inner name to Lo-Ammi by declaring 'I am God's people; God is my God' and feel that unity as real now.
