Biblical Context
Jeremiah 37:2 describes the king, his officials, and the people failing to listen to the LORD’s words spoken by Jeremiah.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this moment, the words of Jeremiah are not a memory of a distant people, but an inner summons. The king, his officials, and the people symbolize a state of consciousness that resists hearing the LORD. The LORD’s message through the prophet is the inner voice of I AM—your own awareness inviting alignment with truth. When you discern yourself not listening, you are being shown your current inner disposition rather than being judged by a past event. The verse teaches that obedience begins as an inner shift: to listen, to accept, to act in harmony with the higher word you hear within. Obedience is not enforcement from without but harmonizing your inner climate so that the outer circumstances reflect faithful movement. By persistently revising your state to one that has heard and answered, you alter the inner movement and thus the outer results. The call is to inhabit the inner hearing here and now, and to let that inner assurance guide every choice, every step, every response.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare: I AM listening now; I choose to heed my inner Word. Feel the assurance as if you already obeyed, and let one small obedient action flow from that feeling.
