Inner Harvest and Return
Jeremiah 12:13-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 12:13-15 speaks of sowing and reaping, with thorns replacing wheat and labor seeming fruitless. It also promises that after plucking up the exile, God will return and restore the people to their heritage.
Neville's Inner Vision
Jeremiah 12:13-15 becomes a guide to your inner life. The sowing of wheat and the reaping of thorns are symbolic of mental acts you have practiced—beliefs and fears that yield painful results when left unchecked. The fierce anger of the LORD is not a distant judgment but the sharpening of awareness, signaling that your current state cannot bear lasting fruit. The 'evil neighbours' who touch the inheritance are the limiting thoughts and external conditions you mistakenly identify with; yet the text promises plucking them out and returning with compassion. In Neville's psychology, the land and inheritance are your I AM—the awakened consciousness that restores itself. After the clearing, you are brought back to your heritage, your true land, within. The message is that the transition from judgment to mercy begins in your imagination as you revise your inner state and accept your more loving, prosperous self. Your practice is to persist in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, until events align with this inner return.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are already home in your inner land. Feel the status of your restored inheritance now and dwell in the I AM that returns.
