Break The Inner Bottle
Jeremiah 19:10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah is commanded to break a pottery bottle in front of the witnesses as a dramatic sign of impending judgment and accountability. The act signals a severing from corrupt ways and the cleaving to righteousness and truth.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider the bottle as your old state of consciousness—the belief that judgment originates outside you and that your fate is decided by the crowd. When you reinterpret this scene, you realize the voice and the act belong entirely to you, the I AM that watches. To break the bottle in the sight of your inner company is to revise the condition of your heart: you are no longer governed by fear or by others' verdicts, but by a decision held in the imagination. The prophecy and promise unfold as you accept responsibility for the reality you have imagined. The sign teaches that justice and righteousness arise from an inward alignment; the external scene merely mirrors the shift you have already completed in awareness. In this light, the act is not violence but the decisive act of consciousness—breaking old forms to let a newer, truer state stand free and compel the world to reflect that reality.
Practice This Now
Imagine breaking the bottle in your mind's eye, feeling the release of the old belief. Affirm that you are the I AM, and that through imagination you shape your reality.
