Jeremiah's Inner Pastors

Jeremiah 3:15-18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 3 in context

Scripture Focus

15And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
16And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.
17At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.
18In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.
Jeremiah 3:15-18

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 3:15-18 speaks of God giving pastors after His heart to feed the people with knowledge and understanding. It also foretells a time when true leadership shifts inward, bringing unity to the house of Judah and Israel.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the Lord not as a distant ark or a temple in a physical place, but as the I AM within you—the living, watching consciousness that never wavers. The shepherds God promises are not external institutions but states of awareness that feed you with knowledge and understanding when you choose to dwell there. In this sense, multiplied and increased in the land becomes your inner expansion: more quiet, more clarity, more alignment with the truth that the ark and the temple symbolize your own inner covenant. As you heed these pastors of the heart, you no longer visit an outer relic to find God; you visit the inner throne of your Jerusalem, the place where the LORD sits within your own consciousness. Nations gathering unto it reflect all sides of your life bowing to the unity of purpose that comes when you stop following the imagination of your old, fearful heart. The promise of unity—house of Judah with house of Israel—becomes your internal concord, your thoughts, your feelings, and your will walking together in harmony.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly, declare 'I AM the shepherd of my heart' and feel the feed of knowledge rise within you. See Jerusalem—the throne of the LORD—established inside, and allow every part of you to walk in unity with that inner ruler.
