Inner Gershon Cities
Joshua 21:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Joshua 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Gershonites receive thirteen cities by lot from several tribes in Bashan, symbolizing a divinely ordered allocation within the inner self.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner dialogue, the verse shows that the Gershon energy—the keeper of service and boundary within your mind—has been given a homeland by the I AM, allocated among the faculties you call Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and the Manasseh side in Bashan. Providence moves quietly to place each aspect in its appointed city, so that no part of you stands outside a functioning city gate. The lot is not chance but alignment: your belief assigns roles; your imagination consents to their dwellings; and consciousness opens its gates to receive them. When you acknowledge that your inner family—your discernment (Issachar), your blessing/joy (Asher), your expressive vitality (Naphtali), and your inherited purpose (Manasseh)—has a home in a fertile land (Bashan) within your mind, you create unity. A census of divisions becomes a harmony: many parts under one governor, Providence, guided by your I AM. No more inner battling; just a well-ordered republic where every city supports the whole.
Practice This Now
Assume that your Gershon energy has thirteen cities already settled within your mind, distributed among your Issachar-Discerning, Asher-Blessing, Naphtali-Expression, and Manasseh-Inheritance tendencies. Close your eyes, imagine walking through a peaceful map of inner cities, feel the I AM placing each trait in its proper dwelling; then affirm, 'I am the governor of my inner land, Providence guides all my faculties.'
