Inner Hope In The Day Of Evil

Jeremiah 17:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 17 in context

Scripture Focus

17Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.
Jeremiah 17:17

Biblical Context

The verse expresses a plea not to be terrified and asserts that God is the speaker's hope in the day of evil.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah invites you to see adversity as a scene played in the theater of your own consciousness. God is not distant but the I AM within—the unwavering witness whose light remains when fear rises. The line 'Be not a terror unto me' is not a command to resist a threat outside you; it is a remedy: you turn away from the nightmare by recognizing that your awareness is not shaken. In Neville's terms, 'thou art my hope in the day of evil' means the inner state of trust—the self-remembered presence that anticipates good. When you claim that, you align with the truth that imagination creates reality; the day of evil then becomes a 'day of light' seen from the standpoint of consciousness. When you inhabit the feeling that you are already safe, guided, and supported by the I AM that you are, let fear soften into reverent expectancy, and notice how outer events rearrange to fit the new inner assumption.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: for a few minutes, repeat 'I am the hope in the day of evil' and feel the I AM steadying you; then carry that feeling into the next moment.
