Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 4:1-2 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 4 in context

Scripture Focus

1If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the LORD, return unto me: and if thou wilt put away thine abominations out of my sight, then shalt thou not remove.

2And thou shalt swear, The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness; and the nations shall bless themselves in him, and in him shall they glory.

Jeremiah 4:1-2

Biblical Context

God calls Israel to return to Him by discarding what offends His sight. A true return places truth and righteousness at the center, and the outer world reflects that inner covenant.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the text does not speak of geography but of consciousness. The call to 'return' is a return to the I AM, the essential you. The 'abominations' are beliefs and habits that keep you apart from divine reality—doubt, fear, lack, envy, the old story of separation. When you consent to return, you don't bargain with the world; you align your inner state with truth, with the one reality that is God within. In that moment, the 'LORD liveth' becomes your living assurance: you swear by the living I AM, in truth, in judgment, in righteousness. The nations blessing themselves in Him signifies that your environment witnesses and is rearranged by your inner alignment. As you assume this return and embody it, you will see people, conditions, and opportunities respond to your new state. The outer is simply the echo of inner conviction. Remember: God is awareness, not a distant being but your own I AM; your imagination is the instrument by which you inhabit and enact what you are.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume, 'I am returned to the I AM.' Feel the inner assurance as a living reality, then visualize your environment bless itself in that truth, judgment, and righteousness.
