Inner Fire Jeremiah 7:20
Jeremiah 7:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The Lord declares His anger will be poured out on this place—upon people, animals, trees, and the fruit—burning with an unquenchable fire. This image signals a severe consequence tied to the state of the land and its inhabitants.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's terms, the fiery decree is not a meteor from without but a reflection of your inner climate. The 'place' is your inner world; 'man,' 'beast,' 'trees,' and 'fruit' symbolize the components of your beliefs, appetites, and conditions. The burning that cannot be quenched represents the energized charge of a state you have not revised. God is the I AM—the pure awareness that observes and can reframe. When you identify with fear or judgment, you feed the flame; when you awaken to I AM, you withdraw attention from the drama and plant a new assumption. Begin by assuming you are already the presence that dissolves the fire: 'I AM the I AM; this scene is now under my conscious control.' Feel this truth and replace images of destruction with imagery of order, safety, and flourishing—land, people, trees, fruit—gathered in harmonious awareness. Thus the fiery decree becomes a cleansing energy that sharpens your unity with the divine, not a punishment from without.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Close your eyes and assume, 'I AM the I AM; this fiery judgment is only my signal of dormant awareness. I revise the scene now and feel the peace as the fire dissolves into clarity.'
