Inner Prophecy Renewal
Jeremiah 14:15-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 14:15-16 condemns prophets who speak presumptuously in God's name and warns that their words bring punishment to both the false prophets and the people who follow them; the land suffers as a result.
Neville's Inner Vision
Here the LORD you hear is the I AM within; the prophets and the people are not external messengers but inner voices and states of consciousness. When you entertain thoughts that declare doom or promise safety apart from your own awareness, you are listening to counterfeit prophets who were not sent by your true Self. The sword and famine are not future calamities but the choking of life from believing fear-based stories. As you identify with those voices, you cast your inner Jerusalem into streets of despair and bury your possibilities beneath the rubble of doubt; your 'wickedness' is the habitual habit of listening to fear rather than to the I AM that gives life. The remedy is simple: turn away from those false voices and return to the I AM's governance within you. Assume a state where there is no famine, no sword, only abundance, safety, and wholeness. Repeat, feel, and assume that the inner city is intact because you are one with the I AM, and you revise the inner prophecy by declaring: 'I am the Lord of my own world; the dream of lack dissolves by my awareness.'
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling of your inner Jerusalem thriving. Say quietly: I am the I AM within, and there is no lack or danger here.
