Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 24:9-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 24 in context

Scripture Focus

9And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth for their hurt, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them.

10And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers.

Jeremiah 24:9-10

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 24:9-10 portrays a people driven into exile across many kingdoms as a consequence of their ways, bringing hardship and judgment. It also speaks of a purging process—sword, famine, and pestilence—until the land is cleansed and restored to those to whom it belongs.

Neville's Inner Vision

The exile and the kingdoms are states of consciousness, not geography. The I AM within you is the true land; when you identify with lack, fear, or separation, you wander through mental kingdoms, tasting reproach as the echo of your belief. The sword, famine, and pestilence are inner forces that expose and dissolve old patterns, making room for a new state to take root. To be delivered from the land you think you own is the mind surrendering old identifications so you may return to your original gift of wholeness and harmony. The decree to be driven out is a call to awaken attention to the I AM, claim the land you were given, and align with the inner realm that outpictures as outer life. The path to the inner kingdom, then, is through consistent assumption, revision, and feeling it real until the inner state lingers as outer experience. Begin now by choosing a new state and persisting in it, even when appearances resist.

Practice This Now

Assume you are already in the inner kingdom; and when fear or lack arises, revise by declaring I AM and I am delivered now, feeling that truth in your chest. Visualize a scene of wholeness and ease, and rest in that feeling until it becomes your habitual state.
