Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 25:8-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 25 in context

Scripture Focus

8Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words,

9Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.

10Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.

11And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

12And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.

13And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

14For many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also: and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands.

Jeremiah 25:8-14

Biblical Context

Because the people did not heed God's words, judgment comes from the north, bringing invasion, desolation, and seventy years of servitude. After that period, God will repay the nations for their deeds.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the history you read is a mirror of your inner states. When you disregard the word of the Lord within, the north wind of stubborn beliefs sweeps across your interior land, and desolation follows as a natural result. The seventy years symbolize the time you remain identified with limited thoughts and fears; during that season you seem to lose joy, sound, and light. Yet the reality behind all appearances is the I AM, the living presence that never abandons you. If you awaken to that truth, you can revise the script now: invite the land to be restored by your inner decree, hear the voice of mirth return, and feel the candlelight of awareness illuminate every corner. Nations and kings in this sense are inner aspects of your mind, subject to your decree, not external rulers. When you cease fighting this inner weather and align with the I AM, the desolation dissolves and your world reorients to harmony, abundance, and a renewed sense of purpose. Your deeds then reflect a consciousness that has chosen life instead of fear.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe gently, and revise the scene as already accomplished. Feel the land restored, joy returned, and the light of awareness brightening every corner.
