The Inner Idols Within Judah

Jeremiah 11:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 11 in context

Scripture Focus

12Then shall the cities of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense: but they shall not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
13For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal.
Jeremiah 11:12-13

Biblical Context

Judah's cities cry to many gods with incense, but none can save in trouble. The verse exposes false worship by showing outward rituals that miss the inward alignment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Do you hear Jeremiah speaking to the watcher in you? The cities of Judah are the turning points of your mind, and the many gods are the beliefs you keep offering incense to—images of safety built in the belief that life comes from something outside your own awareness. In the hour of trouble, none of these idols can save you, for salvation is not a thing you bargain with; it is the I AM you awaken into. The ‘number of thy cities’ and the ‘streets of Jerusalem’ signify the countless patterns of dependence that have been set up in your interior life—each one a little altar to Baal, a kept image that promises relief while keeping you tethered to limitation. To change the scene, do not chase the external gods, but revise your internal assumption: that you are separate from the One Power; affirm that the I AM within you is the only reality. Feel it real now, dwell in that awareness, and watch as the inner condition reforms the outer world to reflect your true worship—presence, wholeness, freedom.

Practice This Now

For five minutes, close your eyes and repeat 'I AM' as the one reality you inhabit. Then revise the scene by affirming that inner wholeness governs the outer, and notice how the surroundings respond.
