Inner Deceit, Outer Wealth
Jeremiah 5:26-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage exposes wicked men who trap others and fill their homes with deceit; their wealth grows as they ignore the vulnerable and fail to judge the rights of the needy.
Neville's Inner Vision
To read Jeremiah 5:26-28 with Neville's eye is to see that the world of traps and deceit is a mirror of your inner assumptions. The men who lay wait, who fill their houses with deceit, are not distant villains; they are the recurring states you permit in consciousness when you feel separate from the will to provide. Wealth becomes 'great' when the mind tells stories of gain that ignore the fatherless and the needy. The outer economy, with its fat and shining image, reflects an inner appetite to prosper without justice. Yet you are not condemned to remain identified with such states. The kingdom you seek is not out there but within, in the decision to judge rightly and to provide for the vulnerable in your own consciousness. By changing your inner posture—refusing deceit as a strategy, preferring justice, choosing to fill your mental house with truth—you invite a different measure of supply into life. The scene shifts when you assume a new reality: I am the I AM, the source of both wealth and justice, here and now.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise: I am the I AM, the source of all provision; in this inner state there is no deceit, only justice and abundance. Feel the certainty, and imagine the needy rights judged and provided for within your consciousness.
