The Inner Yoke Of Imagination

Jeremiah 27:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 27 in context

Scripture Focus

2Thus saith the LORD to me; Make thee bonds and yokes, and put them upon thy neck,
3And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the Ammonites, and to the king of Tyrus, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers which come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
Jeremiah 27:2-3

Biblical Context

Jeremiah is commanded to make bonds and yokes and wear them, sending them to distant kings; this acts as a symbolic sign of surrender to authority and reflects the path from exile to return. The outward events mirror the inner state.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the LORD speaks as I AM awareness. The bonds and yokes Jeremiah makes are not metal; they are the images you wear in consciousness—the insistence that you are governed by a higher authority. By placing the yoke about your neck and sending it forth to the distant kings, you are rehearsing a state of acceptance and obedience to the inner decree. The outer nations stand for conditions you believed constrained you: Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, Sidon—each is a fragment of your world of limitation. The act signifies you choose to be guided by a divine purpose rather than by fear. Your present events—the exile, the return—become reflections of your inner movement. To master them, refuse to react to appearances; instead, accept the role assigned by your I AM and feel the reality of that ruling state now. The prophet’s visible sign is your inner conviction made external. This is how imagination creates reality: you wear the yoke, the world carries the sign, and your life moves according to that inner statute.

Practice This Now

Imaginatively place a symbolic yoke on your neck and proclaim, 'I am governed by the I AM within.' Feel the feeling of inner obedience and notice a subtle alignment in your daily life as you revise your sense of limitation.
