Purification of the Inner Camp
Joshua 7:13-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Joshua 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Israel is told to sanctify themselves and remove the accursed thing from among them, or they cannot stand before their enemies. The procedure divides by tribe and family to identify the offender, who is then punished, restoring the covenant through purification.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your inner Jerusalem, there is an accursed thing - perhaps a lingering fear, a vanity, a restless desire - that blocks your stand against life's enemies. The command to sanctify is not a ritual of others; it is your decision to align your mind with the I AM, to remove the stumblings you have harbored as truth. When you identify the tribe and family within your consciousness that has yielded to that mistaken energy, you are called to purge it, to remove it from the midst of your mental nation. The covenant is your agreement with God as I AM, the law of your true nature; transgression is simply a belief that you are separate from that law. As you revise and forgive, the inner tribe that remains is the one the I AM will take, the one that can stand before imagined enemies unshaken. The fire is symbolic of awareness burning away attachment to limitation, judgment, and fear, until Israel - the sacred self - walks intact in divine order.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I am sanctified now; there is no accursed thing in me.' Visualize a bright flame sweeping through your mind, purging fear, doubt, and separation, leaving divine order intact.
