Moab's Lament, Inner Waters

Isaiah 15:2-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 15 in context

Scripture Focus

2He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.
3In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.
4And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.
5My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
6For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.
7Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
8For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim.
Isaiah 15:2-8

Biblical Context

Moab laments publicly over its losses, signaling an inner state of sorrow and impending desolation described in Isaiah 15:2-8.

Neville's Inner Vision

Moab's cry is not a place but a state of consciousness that believes itself diminished. The baldness, sackcloth, and wailing symbolize a mind that has forgotten its I AM and clung to outward gains. When the outer world speaks of drought and despair, the inner self is invited to attend to its own sovereign awareness: the waters of Nimrim dry up when the inner waters have forgotten their Source. My heart crying for Moab is your deeper self acknowledging a moment when you have set your identity upon possession rather than realization. Yet within every howl lies a doorway: you can choose to awaken as the one who sees that circumstances follow the pictures you hold in consciousness. By assuming a new scene, by feeling the truth of abundance as your present right, you redirect the moving river of life from loss to fulfillment. If you revise the story from lack to inexhaustible supply, the cry can become a song of renewal.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and assume aloud, 'I AM abundance now.' Then revise any lack into a present-tense reality by feeling the inner resource as already yours.
