Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 44:28-29 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 44 in context

Scripture Focus

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.

29And this shall be a sign unto you, saith the LORD, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:

Jeremiah 44:28-29

Biblical Context

Only a small remnant will escape and return from Egypt to Judah, proving whose words endure—God's or theirs. This return is a sign that God’s words will stand, and the accompanying punishment reveals the truth of that enduring word.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your exile is a state of mind; Egypt represents the habit of surrendering to appearances, while Judah is the restored territory of inner sovereignty where the I AM asserts truth. The remnant are the steadfast convictions that refuse fear, slipping free from the sword of limitation to inhabit the land of truth where God's words stand. The sign of this passage is not external, but an inner correction that demonstrates the power of your words: as you align your inner decree with the divine word, the outer world mirrors that decree. If you have believed other voices more than your own inward authority, the outward pain serves to wake you to the fact that your words carry real power. The key is to recognize that the I AM within you is the source of every outcome; when you fully own your inner decree, the remnant returns and what you have spoken inwardly becomes outward reality.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine you are among the remnant returning from Egypt to Judah; dwell in the feeling that your inner decree is already fulfilled, and declare Mine words stand.
