Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 27:9-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 27 in context

Scripture Focus

9Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon:

10For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.

Jeremiah 27:9-10

Biblical Context

Jeremiah warns against listening to those who promise deliverance from Babylon; their words pull you away from your current land. The real threat is internal belief; the true return rests in your own consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah 27:9-10 is not about a historical empire but about inner voices that pretend to deliver you from your present state. The voices that promise you freedom from your present condition are the counterfeit prophets whose lies remove you from the ground you stand on and place you in fear of the king of Babylon—the visible circumstance. When you accept their promises, you hand power to the outer event and you perish in your sense of inner authority. Yet the I AM within you is the true king, constant and unpersuadable by changing scenes. The inner land is not a geography but a state—your fixed awareness that nothing but consciousness shapes experience. Exile and return become inner movements: exile happens whenever you identify with limitation; return occurs when you claim that you already dwell in the promised land of awareness, regardless of appearances. If you align with this prophecy, you restore order to your dream and allow the manifest to bend to your inner motion rather than to fear.

Practice This Now

Assume you are already in the inner land; feel the I AM as constant governor of your life. If a voice promises escape, revise it: you are where you belong, and the land holds you firm.
