Inner Word Heard: The LORD Speaks
Jeremiah 23:37 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse commands you to ask the prophet what the LORD has answered or spoken. It emphasizes faithful, verifiable communication with God.
Neville's Inner Vision
Here the prophet and the LORD are not distant figures but stations of your own consciousness. The 'prophet' is the inner voice that speaks from your current state of mind; the LORD is the I AM within you, the awareness that already knows the truth. When you ask, 'What hath the LORD answered thee? What hath the LORD spoken?' you are testing the communication between your present feeling and your deepest truth. If your sensation of self is anxious or doubt-filled, that is the word you must revise; if it resonates as certainty, that is the spoken word you must live by. Neville-style, you do not beg for a future decree but assume alignment with the inner decree now. The verse invites obedience to the inner word and to keep false prophets from steering you by fear; you judge every message by whether it leads to a state of peace, abundance, and courageous action. Your outer circumstances will echo the state you cultivate. Remember: imagination creates reality; by calmly asking and listening, you let the LORD's voice govern your life through the I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, ask internally, 'What has the LORD answered thee? What has the LORD spoken?' Then revise your sense of self to align with the answer you received and feel it real in the body.
