Inner Harvest of Power

Isaiah 17:3-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 17 in context

Scripture Focus

3The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts.
4And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.
5And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.
6Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
Isaiah 17:3-6

Biblical Context

Externally, kingdoms fall and the glory of Jacob wanes. Within, a small remnant remains to be tended for renewal.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the verses as movements inside your own consciousness. The fortress and the kingdom are thoughts you once treated as solid structures; when you attend to them as the I AM, they dissolve not by force but by awareness. The line that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin describes how your fixed self-image loosens its grip as you reorient toward the observer within. The fatness of the flesh wanes because abundance no longer comes from outward images but from a quiet, unassailable center. In that harvest imagery, the ears gathered by the arm and the few remaining grapes signal that truth does not abandon you; it concentrates, minifying outward display while preserving inward nourishment. The remnant is your purified core—ready to receive new form without fear. Your job is to dwell in the I AM, to revise old identities, and to feel the new state as already complete. As you practice, you recognize that the external world is the shadow of inner movements; by ruling your inner scenes, you reshape what you behold.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: close your eyes, breathe, and declare: 'The fortress and kingdoms have ceased in my awareness; only the remnant remains and thrives.' Then visualize gathering two or three berries from the uppermost branches as a sign of inner provision, and feel gratitude as if it were your present reality.
