Jeremiah 21:1 — Inner Word

Neville's Inner Vision

Listen as I propose the inner reading: The LORD who speaks to Jeremiah is the I AM within you—the living Word you can hear in this very moment. The earthly king Zedekiah and his messengers symbolize outer authorities that seek counsel from the prophet, yet the true directive comes not from a council of men but from consciousness itself. When you turn attention inward, the Word arises as a present realization of your state. It is not a distant forecast but a fresh radiance of the I AM, inviting you to align with your own truth rather than bend to external pressure. The people and roles described are inner dispositions—Pashur and Zephaniah—priestly functions within your mind trying to regulate you. The message to Jeremiah is the message to your awareness: remain faithful, listen inwardly, and act from the certainty that the Word already governs your experience. Prophesy is a present ability to wage peace by inward alignment, for the Presence of God is your uninterrupted awareness.
