Return to Inner Heritage
Jeremiah 17:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 17:4 declares that you will discontinue from the heritage given by God, and you will serve enemies in a land you do not know. It speaks of judgment tied to covenant loyalty.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this line lies a map of inner exile. The heritage spoken of is the I AM, the living awareness you are. When you yield to the belief that you must discontinue from it, you walk into a land you do not know, ruled by imagined enemies—fear, doubt, anger—supremacy claimed by thoughts rather than reality. The fire God speaks of is a fire you kindle within, a judgment that burns as long as you identify with a separated you. But the truth in Neville is that exile is a state of mind you can revise. Return to your original covenant by choosing the I AM as your permanent address and by feeling the reality of your inherited wholeness. Speak and live from the premise that you are already the master of your inner kingdom, and the outer conditions will align to reflect that inner state. The unknown land becomes the playground of possibilities when consciousness is loyal to its divine source.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise by assuming I AM is the only power; imagine you are already standing in your heritage, and feel it as present reality.
