Lamb in the Large Place
Hosea 4:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hosea 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Israel has backslidden, like a backsliding heifer. Now God will nourish and shepherd them, feeding them in a spacious place.
Neville's Inner Vision
Israel slid back, you might say, yet this is not a history of guilt but a state of consciousness. The backsliding heifer stands for a mind wavering from the awareness that you are kept by the I AM, not by fear. The verse declares a shift: the LORD will feed them as a lamb in a large place. Feed here is not punishment but the sustained nourishment of awareness—the feeling that you are already provided for, even when you drift. The lamb is your true, unafraid nature, thriving in a vast pasture of imagination where nothing is lacking. When you perceive your wandering as a temporary movement within consciousness rather than a fact about you, you invite the generous feed of divine presence to pour into every corner of your mind. Practically, rest in the idea you are fed by the Infinite, in a spacious mental field where every need is harmonized by the I AM. Your work is to hold that feeling until it becomes your lived experience.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume 'I am fed by the Infinite in a spacious mind,' then feel the abundance until it becomes real.
