Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 23:20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 23 in context

Scripture Focus

20The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.

Jeremiah 23:20

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 23:20 speaks of God’s anger persisting until the heart’s thoughts are fulfilled, and in the end you will see that the inner intention has been accomplished.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, the 'anger of the LORD' is the restless energy of your own consciousness when it resists the state that would realize its thoughts. 'Shall not return until he has executed' means your I AM will not release the tension until the inner intention of your heart is lived as a finished result. The 'latter days' are moments of inner clarity when you perceive that the thoughts you have entertained have moved through you to fulfillment. God is not a distant judge but the I AM that you ARE; the inner demand of your imagination creates outer appearances. When you feel the pull of anger, recognize it as the energy pushing you toward the fulfilled state. Do not resist it; let it refine your state by assuming the state that would have performed the thoughts. Act as though the inner plan is finished, and dwell in the certainty of that fulfilled state. Outer proof follows the inner assumption.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes, assume the state that the inner thoughts are already executed, and feel the certainty as if the completed outcome is now. Whisper 'I AM that I AM' and rest in the feeling of fulfillment.
