Enduring Name Within

Jeremiah 11:19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 11 in context

Scripture Focus

19But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.
Jeremiah 11:19

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 11:19 portrays him as a lamb led to slaughter, yet unaware of plots to destroy him so his name would be erased. The passage invites us to see inner struggle as a test of perseverance, calling us to awaken to the living I AM within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard’s inner-vision, Jeremiah’s scene is not a history of enemies but a drama of your own consciousness. The lamb or the ox represents your willingness to be led by life, not to escape it, and the ‘slaughter’ marks the moment when old beliefs about you are ready to die. The devices against you are not external plots, but mental images—fear, doubt, memory—seeking to destroy the tree with its fruit, to erase a living expression from the land of the living. Yet the land of the living is your current awareness, the I AM beneath every sensation and circumstance. If you recognize that you are the I AM and not the story that fear emplots, the threat loses its grip. The tree remains, its fruit intact, because your true identity endures as consciousness that cannot be cut off. Your deliverance comes not by fleeing events but by revising your sense of self until you know the name you bear is memory of divine life in you, forever remembered in the living you.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and declare, I AM the presence that never dies; revise the sense of danger until you feel it real that nothing can destroy your inner name. Hold that state for a few breaths.
