Inner Mourning Assembly
Jeremiah 9:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 9:17 invites you to call forth inner mourners and the wise, signaling a conscious gathering of your states to face sorrow. It frames judgment and trials as opportunities to summon discernment and transform through inner alignment.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the I AM, Jeremiah speaks not of distant doom but of your own consciousness assembling its factions. 'Thus saith the LORD of hosts' becomes, in your practice, 'Thus says I AM, the one who is aware here and now.' When you are told to consider and to call for the mourning women, you are being told to awaken the parts of you that feel loss and wear the cloak of sorrow. The 'cunning women' are the wise, practical faculties—discernment, imagination, creative power—brought into council. Suffering and trials are not punishments but invitations to observe how your inner movements precipitate outward events. You may revise the scene by assuming a new inner state before it shows up in your world. By recognizing that you are the source of what you experience, you invite the I AM to reinterpret every painful memory as data used to shape a more luminous present. The inner court becomes the place where you choose what you believe and how you feel it-real.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and picture a council chamber inside you. Invite the mourning women to recount your grief, then welcome the cunning women to offer advice, and feel the I AM presence shifting the scene.
