Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 44:24-28 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 44 in context

Scripture Focus

24Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:

25Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.

26Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the LORD, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord GOD liveth.

27Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.

28Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.

Jeremiah 44:24-28

Biblical Context

Jeremiah warns Judah in Egypt against outward vows to the queen of heaven; the Lord declares that His name will not be invoked by such rites, and a remnant will return while the Lord's word stands.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the people in the land of Egypt as a soul distant from its sovereign center. They speak of vows and incense to the queen of heaven, yet Jeremiah exposes worship rooted in need rather than the knowing of the I AM. The core is not obedience to a ritual, but allegiance to the inner decree that endures: the I AM who names and sustains all. When you align with that inner word, you withdraw power from external symbols and allow the true governance of mind to rule your life. The Lord’s promise to watch for evil shows what happens when you cling to idols: you encounter inner conflict and lack. The remnant who escapes and returns to the land of Judah embodies the conscious choice to let the self-existing I AM speak through you. The question 'whose words shall stand' becomes practical: which pictures, beliefs, and vows govern your day? Choose the Mine, and the life you seek reveals itself.

Practice This Now

Today, when you sense an external vow pulling you, revise by declaring I align my will with the I AM; all prayers and actions are governed by the inner Word. Then visualize stepping from Egypt into Judah, the remnant restored to its true state.
