Field Of Inner Harmony

Jeremiah 4:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 4 in context

Scripture Focus

17As keepers of a field, are they against her round about; because she hath been rebellious against me, saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 4:17

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 4:17 depicts keepers encircling a city because it has rebelled against the LORD. In Neville's terms, this encirclement is a metaphor for the inner field of consciousness responding to rebellion against the divine I AM.

Neville's Inner Vision

On the inner level, this verse proclaims that the field of your being is watched by its own guards whenever you turn from the universal I AM. The city is your center of awareness; keepers are the habitual thoughts and defenses that circle it, trying to keep you in line with your settled patterns. When you declare rebellion against the I AM within, you invite encircling conditions to form around your state in the same way the guards surround the city. But this is not punishment from some external power; it is the natural law of your own consciousness aligning with the thoughts you plant. If you remain obstinate, you feed separation and the surrounding watchers tighten their hold. If you soften into the awareness of I AM—present, constant, all-providing—the encircling field shifts from constraint to protection, because your inner climate has changed. You do not seek to conquer without; you revise your inner assumption and allow the field to reflect your obedience to the inner law. The I AM remains, your true governor, and the field becomes a safe harvest ground.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and declare I AM as the field surrounding you. Revise the sense of rebellion into obedience by feeling the encircling watchers soften and become guardians of your harvest.
