Jeremiah 44:9 Inner Reckoning
Jeremiah 44:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 44 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse calls out the memory of collective and personal wickedness—fathers, kings, and the people—asking if such deeds are forgotten. It points to accountability and the need to awaken to truth in the present.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville lens, this verse is not a history lesson but a mirror to your inner states. The 'wickedness' you read of is the habitual thought of feeling you have consented to as real. When you declare you have forgotten, you are not blaming others; you are admitting your inner world has yielded to a memory of a past self. The land and streets symbolize your entire field of consciousness where actions unfold. Jeremiah's question invites you to awaken from the memory of a former you and to recall the truth of your I AM—awareness that never truly wicked, only misaligned. Repentance, in this light, is not fear but a turning of attention from remembered failure to the present, creative I AM. By choosing a new memory as your rule, you revise the story and awaken to a life that matches your new state.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and recall a past act you deem 'wicked'. Then revise it by affirming I AM the presence of righteousness now, and feel that new state as real.
