Profitable Inner Words
Jeremiah 7:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah warns that trusting lying words yields no profit. The call is to align inner belief with truth and faithfulness so that one’s inner state bears real fruit.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Jeremiah 7:8, the 'lying words' are not merely spoken falsehoods but the stream of inner beliefs that pretend to promise safety while withholding effect. In Neville's psychology, places are inner dispositions, and events are moves of consciousness; the verse points to a mind that trusts signs, words, and images that profit nothing because they do not spring from the I AM, the living awareness within. The moment you identify with that lying whisper-'this will profit me through fear, blame, or doubt'-you fashion a counterfeit reality. The true profitable word arises when you assume the state of the I AM, imagining yourself already in possession of the fruit you seek. It is not external circumstance that yields results, but the inner attitude you dwell in. Hope alone cannot birth change; unwavering inner conviction does. The law of consciousness answers to the sentience you cultivate. So you revise by naming the lying words, choosing instead the truth of your I AM, and feeling as though the profit you desire is already yours.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare 'I AM'; assume the profitable state now and feel the desired fruit as already yours for a full minute.
