Inner Land Rebuilt by I AM

Jeremiah 45:1-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 45 in context

Scripture Focus

1The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
2Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch:
3Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the LORD hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.
4Thus shalt thou say unto him, The LORD saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.
Jeremiah 45:1-4

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 45:1-4 records God speaking to Baruch, promising that He will break down what He has built and uproot what He has planted. This signals upheaval in the land (the inner life) as a doorway to renewal.

Neville's Inner Vision

Baruch’s lament reveals a consciousness clinging to the old order. In this moment, the Lord—the I AM within you—speaks not to condemn but to reveal the law of inner renewal: the forms you have built in mind will be broken down, and the planted ideas of a higher life will be uprooted and replanted as your inner land is reconstituted. The land is your state of being; the built and the planted are the habits of thought and the stories you tell about yourself. When you insist that nothing should change, you are Baruch; when you hear, ‘Behold, I will break down… I will pluck up… this whole land,’ you are invited into the simple act of imagination: surrender the old fixtures and allow the new to take root. This is the I AM doing the work of renewal through you, turning grief into rest and preparing a soil in which peace and vitality can grow. You are the scribe of your life; the written word becomes your lived experience when you revise with awareness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, hear the inner I AM tell you that old lands are breaking down and new land is being planted within you; feel the rest that follows the renewal and revise any lingering grievances into gratitude.
