Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 25:27-33 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 25 in context

Scripture Focus

27Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

28And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Ye shall certainly drink.

29For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith the LORD of hosts.

30Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

31A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the LORD.

32Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

33And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

Jeremiah 25:27-33

Biblical Context

The passage declares that people will drink a cup of judgment, and if they refuse, they will still drink it. It foresees widespread upheaval, sword, roar, and a final fate for the old order across the earth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Let the cup be your current state of consciousness. The Lord of hosts is the I AM within you, the sovereign awareness that measures belief by the consequences you call into life. When you read of drinking and spue and falling, see it as your own experience of fear and separation draining away as you become aware that you are not the fallen but the witness who drinks the cup to re-create it. The sword that I will send is the law of cause and effect pressing your attention until you release the old identification. The great roar from on high is the inner verdict of truth when you finally acknowledge that you are the I AM rather than the world’s judgment of you. The controversy with the nations is your inner dialog about who you are; the evil that goes forth is the outdated belief that you are separate from God. When you accept this, the whirlwind of old thoughts dissolves and the slain becomes the past, not the future. Your job is to prophesy to your own mind that you are one with the I AM and nothing else.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM inside, tasting the cup and declaring I am the LORD of hosts; this fear is only a dream dissolving in awareness. Feel it real until your sense of separation melts into one radiant presence.
