The Word as Fire and Hammer
Jeremiah 23:29 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 23:29 presents God's word as a fire and a hammer, capable of burning away falsehood and breaking the rock of resistance. It shows truth and accountability begin within the observer.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the Word spoken by Jeremiah is not a distant oracle but a living force of consciousness. The word is fire that purges the mind of stale beliefs, heat that consumes fear, and light that clarifies choice. And like a hammer, it strikes the rock of circumstance until the old form fractures and yields to the greater substance: the I AM, the you who notices and directs. When you claim the Word as your own, the outer world rearranges to reflect your inner state. Truth and faithfulness cease to be external standards and become your inner posture: continual alignment with the assumed reality you intend. Judgment and accountability dissolve into self-governance: you own the state you imagine and correct it by revision and feeling. Prophecy and promise awaken in present tense as you dwell in the assumption: what you affirm inwardly tends to become outward form. This is the practical magic I teach: employ imagination to realize the inner word as fire and hammer, and let it reshape your life from the inside out.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the state you seek and feel it real; sit quietly and declare, 'The Word within me is fire and hammer, breaking the rock of limitation and revealing the I AM.'
