Inner Invasion, Outer Peace
Jeremiah 5:15-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah foresees a distant, mighty nation coming to consume harvest, bread, flocks, and secured cities as a form of divine judgment.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville vantage, that invading nation is not a geography but a state of consciousness. The phrase 'from far' speaks to beliefs and fears that lie outside your present awareness; the 'language thou knowest not' is the inner speech of doubt you have not learned to translate or dissolve. The quiver as an open sepulchre represents your habitual weapons—the stubborn opinions and grievances that seem alive, yet are empty when faced with the I AM that stands as awareness. When your harvest, bread, and vines are threatened, the issue is not the outside calamity but the belief that your vitality depends on conditions beyond your control. You are invited to realize that true security rests in the inner sanctuary of consciousness that cannot be impoverished. Change the assumption: see the invader as a signal, not a fact; revise the script to, 'I AM the author, sustainer, and governor of all my experiences by the power of awareness'; feel it real by dwelling in that self-identity here and now.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine a scene where you stand within your inner city, untouched by the invading force; hear the calm verdict of I AM confirming that your supply cannot be disrupted, and repeat an affirmation until it settles as lived reality.
