Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 7:27-28 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 7 in context

Scripture Focus

27Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.

28But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

Jeremiah 7:27-28

Biblical Context

Jeremiah instructs to speak, but the people will not listen or answer. He describes a nation that rejects correction, so truth seems to be perished from their mouths.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this passage, the 'people' are not external villagers but states of consciousness within you. The speaker's relentless calling is your persistent inner voice the I AM reaching a mind that stubbornly resists hearing. When Jeremiah says they will not hearken or answer, he is naming a habit of mind that refuses correction and clings to a worn-out notion of truth. In Neville's terms, truth is not out there; truth is the vibration you speak and the state you inhabit. If you hear resistance, you are simply dwelling in a past assumption that truth cannot enter your mouth, that correction cannot be accepted. The remedy is to shift your inner state: assume that the LORD's voice is always guiding you, that correction flows, that truth is alive in your mouth and in your life. When you speak, you are not persuading marginal minds but aligning your own inner man with the reality you desire. The moment you revise the inner dialogue from they will not listen to I hear the I AM and truth is allowed to speak through me, you restore truths vitality and bring the outer form into harmony.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, place a hand on your heart, and declare that I AM is listening and obeying the inner voice. Feel the truth alive in your mouth as you revise the inner dialogue.
