Neville Goddard on Judges 7:1 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Judges 7 in context

Scripture Focus

1Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.

Judges 7:1

Biblical Context

Gideon and his company rise early and position themselves beside the well, preparing to confront the Midianite force.

Neville's Inner Vision

All that you see in Judges 7:1 is not a distant history but a mirror of your inner state. Jerubbaal/Gideon is your waking self, rising in consciousness before the day of action. The 'well of Harod' is the inner source where you drink clarity that you are alive to a larger plan. The Midianite host, north of them by the hill of Moreh, represents the cloud of fear, the scattered thoughts that overspread the valley of your life when you forget who you are. When you rise early with the people who stand with you—your 'army' of disciplined attention—you place yourself at the boundary where heaven and earth meet. In this moment, the call to march is the call to remember your I AM presence, your divine commission to act from love rather than fear. The ordinary scene becomes the stage on which your inner consent is given, and action follows as a natural outpouring of your realized identity.

Practice This Now

Assume you are already the one you seek to become; picture yourself at the inner Harod, facing fear with calm authority. Then revise the scene in your mind and feel it real as if it is your natural state.
