Inner Visitation and Reckoning
Hosea 9:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hosea 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse speaks of a coming visitation and recompense, signaling a moment of inner awakening and accountability. It notes that the old prophetic voice and the 'spiritual man' may resist this reckoning because of accumulated iniquities and hatred.
Neville's Inner Vision
Days of visitation, in this reading, are not distant decrees but the inner movements of your own consciousness revisiting themselves. Israel stands for the awakened or awakening portion of you; the prophet who calls wisdom a fool and the spiritual man who seems mad are the voices you hear inside as you shift from old thinking to the greater awareness. The multitude of iniquity points to the many unrenewed thoughts you have accepted as true, and the great hatred is the resistance you offer to the truth unfolding within. When you resist, you feel the weight of consequence; when you listen, you discover that every encounter is a mercy, a nudge toward your own creative power. This is the way God works in you: not punishing you, but drawing you back to the awareness that you are the I AM, the storyteller and the scene. So revise your image; feel the end-state now; dwell in the awareness that all you experience arises from your inner state and that the spiritual man within is already awake.
Practice This Now
Assume the completed state now: I AM that I AM; feel the truth as if it already occurred. Then revise a recent troubling thought in your mind until your inner state shifts.
