Knowledge, Covenant, and Inner Shame

Hosea 4:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hosea 4 in context

Scripture Focus

6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
Hosea 4:6-7

Biblical Context

Hosea 4:6-7 warns that rejecting knowledge and forgetting the divine law leads to destruction and shame; as the people multiply outwardly, their inner alignment wanes, turning glory into disgrace.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Hosea, the cry is not a distant judgment but a mirror of your own inner state. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge becomes: you are not at home in your awareness, you have forgotten you are the I AM, the living law. When you reject knowledge, you reject the power to govern your inner state, and you erect a hollow priesthood within you, forgetting the law of thy God—the universal order that orders thoughts, feelings, and outcomes. The inner notice does not accuse but invites revision. As they were increased, so they sinned against me speaks to multiplying outward identities without inner alignment. The more you multiply outward conditions, the more you drift from your truth, and the glory of your true nature is turned to shame in your experiences. Yet this is a call to awaken: return to the inner law as your personal discipline, feel it real as already done, and your 'children'—the fruits of your consciousness—will remember you as the source of light.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: For 5 minutes, sit in quiet awareness and declare, 'I AM the infinite knowledge of my own being.' Feel the inner law guiding every thought and revise a present lack by affirming, 'I know the truth of my being, and the glory of my life is restored.'
