Inner Truth in Jeremiah 9:3-6

Jeremiah 9:3-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 9 in context

Scripture Focus

3And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.
4Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders.
5And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.
6Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 9:3-6

Biblical Context

Jeremiah 9:3-6 exposes a culture of lies and distrust, where truth is eclipsed and deceit moves from neighbor to neighbor. It condemns a life lived in deceit rather than knowing the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah's portrait may be read as a nation asleep to truth, but Neville would say: deceit in speech is but the exhale of an inner state. The tongue is a bow aimed at what you secretly believe about yourself—the illusion that you are apart from God and from truth. When he writes that they know not me, see it as a clue that your own awareness has wandered from the I AM. The remedy is a return to inner alignment: assume the truth of your divine nature and treat every neighbor as a mirror of that same one consciousness. In practice, revise your belief about who you are and what others are doing; with each revision, feel the reality of truth as your own sensation now. Speak and think from the assumption that awareness alone is present, and the world rearranges to fit that posture. Then deceit loses its hold, trust returns as a natural byproduct of inner recognition, and the habitation within becomes a home of integrity rather than a refuge of fear.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place your hand on your heart, and quietly claim, 'I AM the truth within me now.' See every person as a mirror of that same I AM, and feel the reality of unity replace watchful suspicion.
