Dwelling Provision in Jeremiah 40:5-6

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah 40:5–6, seen through Neville Goddard's method, is a map of the mind redirecting its energy toward a viable leadership within. The command to 'go back to Gedaliah' is not a retreat but a reappointment of the I AM to govern the scenes of your day. Gedaliah represents a stable center—the inner governor entrusted by your greater consciousness to oversee the 'cities of Judah' within you: your thoughts, desires, and loyalties. The Babylonian king appears not as a distant tyrant but as the subconscious allowing a safe transition, a permission for you to relocate your attention from mere escape to service. When the captain of the guard furnishes sustenance and a reward, see this as inner nourishment for the renewed state of awareness. Jeremiah’s dwelling with Gedaliah among the remnant is your mind settling in a new normal, reaffirming unity with the people left intact in your heart—compassion, mercy, and a shared purpose. The inner movement is mercy extended to all parts of self; the exile dissolves as you align with a present, workable order. This is redirection that feeds your work and your rest, here and now, in the spiritual theater of your life.
