Inner Word and Deliverance
Jeremiah 37:17-20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 37 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
King Zedekiah secretly seeks a word from the LORD. Jeremiah foresees deliverance into Babylon and questions why he is imprisoned.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your inner life, the king is your outer will, and Jeremiah is the attentive I AM listening through every thought. When the king asks, 'Is there any word from the LORD?' the answer you hear is not a forecast of events, but a now-present certainty: you are already delivered into the hand of the greater power you have chosen as supreme. The Babylonian captor becomes the law of your wider state of awareness, the circumstance that tests your old scripts. Your fear of being wronged or confined is the old scribe’s prison; Jeremiah's question, 'What have I offended?' reveals the ego's need for guilt to justify limitation. The true prophet in you points to the door of retreating from that old house, the place of Jonathan the scribe, where you believed death waited for the self you once knew. But the LORD's word remains: stand in the one who never leaves your door—the I AM—and let the inner deliverance be your present state. Your task is to acknowledge rather than resist, to adopt the inner decree that all things serve your good as you align with your higher self and move with ease through every outward event.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling that you are already delivered. Then revise any sense of imprisonment by imagining you stand at the 'door' of your inner temple and declare, I AM free; feel it real now.
