Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 3:12-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 3 in context

Scripture Focus

12Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.

13Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD.

14Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:

Jeremiah 3:12-14

Biblical Context

The passage invites Israel to return from backsliding, promises mercy, and urges acknowledgment of fault, turning away from external distractions, and restoration to Zion.

Neville's Inner Vision

You are not appealing to an external God to save you; you are waking to a new state of consciousness. The northward call is the command of your attention turning back to the I AM, your eternal covenant. Mercy is not a distant act but the nature of your own awareness—God as I AM forgiving forever. Acknowledge your iniquity as the moment you recognize misalignment with your true self and stop scattering your energy to every green tree of substitutes. When you hear, Turn, O backsliding children, remember that you are already married to the I AM, and Zion is the inner state where you live in union. The promise to bring you home is the dormant potential seeking realization as you persist in inner alignment. Your imagination molds belief, and belief crystallizes into experience as you dwell in the certainty of unity and mercy.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I am reconciled to the I AM; I am married to my true self.' Feel the mercy as your own due, revise any sense of separation, and imagine Zion forming within you as you walk into this restored covenant.
