Inner Confession, Inner Return
Jeremiah 3:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 3:13 calls you to own your misalignment with the LORD and confess your transgressions. It also warns against wandering after distractions and not obeying the inner voice.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the LORD is not a distant judge but the I AM, the living awareness that cannot be divided from your being. To 'acknowledge thine iniquity' is to become aware of the inner misalignment you have rehearsed as your present consciousness. Transgressing against the LORD thy God means believing you are separate from the Source, a belief you feed by imagining many attachments. The line about scattering thy ways to the strangers under every green tree reveals the mind's habit of chasing outer symbols—green trees of status, approval, or novelty—while ignoring the one voice that truly governs. 'Not obeyed my voice' is the moment you choose distraction over inner guidance. Neville's method is simple: revise your assumption until it feels true that you are already in harmony with the divine law. Assume the I AM is speaking within you; hear and obey now. In your inner theater, see yourself turning away from scattered paths and returning to the single, steadfast awareness that animates all life. When this inner alignment is felt real, the outer scenes obediently shift.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly and assume the state, 'I am the I AM, and I hear and obey the inner voice now.' Feel it real for five minutes and observe one small shift in your day.
