Inner Judgment on Exploitation
Isaiah 3:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage declares that the Lord will judge the leaders who have consumed the vineyard and crushed the poor, exposing their exploitation and lack of justice.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner economy, the ancients and princes are states of consciousness—habits of thought that claim abundance while neglecting the vulnerable within. The vineyard is the imagination's garden; when belief leans to exploitation, the wealth you claim sits as spoil in your houses. The beating of the people and grinding of the poor are the inner judgments you pass upon yourself when you doubt, condemn, or withhold generosity. Yet the LORD GOD of hosts dwells as the I AM within, witness and power. Wake to the truth that you are the keeper of your inner world, not a distant judge. Revise from scarcity to abundance by treating the 'poor' within as sacred, nourishing them with attention and generosity. When you align your feeling with justice, external circumstances rearrange to mirror that inner order. Judgment then becomes purification, not punishment, and your inner rulers yield to a fresher truth that you are the steward of all life.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling 'I am the keeper of my life.' Then revise a scene where the inner poor is cared for, imagining you feed and shelter that part for five minutes, feeling it real as if the result is already true.
