Covetousness and Inner Provision
Isaiah 57:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 57 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse portrays divine correction for covetousness and shows how clinging to wealth disrupts the inner guidance, leading a person away from their true path.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the depths of your consciousness, the I AM is the only true bearer of provision. When the script speaks of God being wroth for covetousness, see it as the inner resistance to the natural abundance of your own awareness. The 'smite' is the moment your attention is pulled back from the illusion of lacking things and back into the living presence of I AM. To 'go on frowardly in the way of his heart' is to persist in a stubborn mind-state that equates abundance with external possession. Your world of supply mirrors your inner state; therefore, the moment you relinquish the belief that your worth or provision rests in external goods, you re-enter harmony with the inner economy. By returning to the I AM, you acknowledge you are already complete, and the outer scene rearranges to reflect that truth. This is not punishment but a correction of sense, restoring your alignment with the one power that truly provides.
Practice This Now
Assume boldly right now: I am the I AM, abundantly provided in all things. Hold that feeling for a few minutes, then notice any release of covetousness and a greater sense of inner sufficiency.
