Inner Land Survey of Consciousness
Joshua 18:4-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Joshua 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Three men from each tribe are to survey the land, divide it into seven parts, and return with a description for casting lots before the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
Notice that the command speaks not of earth but of your inner jurisdiction. The land to be described is the terrain of your own mind, and the three men you send forth stand for three acts of awareness you choose to affirm: belief, desire, and attention. As you describe the land, you are actually naming and arranging the movements of consciousness already within you. The seven parts into which you divide the land correspond to seven faculties—memory, imagination, will, feeling, perception, intuition, and faith—each a region you can own and reorder by inner decision. Describing the land is a act of creation in imagination; when you bring the description to the LORD, you are offering your mental map to the I AM, the awareness that you are and always are. Casting lots becomes a practice of alignment: you decide, in stillness, which path of action is in accord with your true being. This is obedience, faithfulness, and discernment wrapped into a single moment of willing acceptance. The verse then becomes your invitation to govern your inner inheritance with serene clarity.
Practice This Now
Practice: In stillness, survey a current issue as seven parts of consciousness; describe the land, choose a favorable lot aligned with the I AM, and feel it real.
