Inner Babylon Awakening

Jeremiah 51:37-39 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 51 in context

Scripture Focus

37And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
38They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.
39In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 51:37-39

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 51:37-39 portrays Babylon becoming a desolate, mocked ruin; the people's revelry gives way to a sleeping dream under God's sentence.

Neville's Inner Vision

I tell you, the desolation of Babylon is your mistaken belief in separation from the I AM. The 'dragons' are the fears you have entertained, the lions' roar the ego's restless stories; the feasts and drunkenness are the intoxications of images that pretend to feed you while you sleep. Yet God’s decree of ruin is not punishment but the reminder that you are the mind that dreams. When you dwell in the I AM, the dream of Babylon dissolves; the walled city melts into your own inner temple, and the perpetual sleep loosens its grip as you refuse to identify with the dream any longer. This is not history; this is your own inner revelation: you awaken by alignment with the one I AM, the awareness that makes dreams alive by your attention. So the vision becomes a map: your inner climate shifts from isolation to unity, from fear to luminous presence. The engine of change is your assumption of the truth that you are the sovereign I AM.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM here and now; revise the image of Babylon as desolation within your mind and feel the dragons recede as you dwell in waking awareness.
