Hosea 9:2-3 Inner Hunger
Hosea 9:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hosea 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Hosea 9:2-3 portrays famine and exile as the outcome of a people losing touch with their covenant land. External lack mirrors inner misalignment with the LORD's presence.
Neville's Inner Vision
What you call floor, winepress, or failed new wine is a symbol of your inner state. When you identify with scarcity, you are living as Ephraim, wandering from the inner land into a metaphorical Egypt of limited belief. The so-called unclean things in Assyria are thoughts and appetites that degrade perception rather than nourish it. The remedy is immediate and intimate: assume you are fed by the I AM within, not by external events. Dwell in the awareness that the kingdom lives inside you; let imagination revise the scene until abundance feels real. Begin from the end—you are already fed, you are already whole—and watch the outer world align with the inner decree. The famine invites you to claim your true sustenance in consciousness, where nothing external can diminish the constant flow of life from your own divine substance.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and, for a minute, dwell in the sense of inner supply. Say to yourself, 'I am fed by the I AM within me,' and feel that reality as now.
