Inner Feasts, Sacred Rest
Leviticus 23:2-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage instructs Israel to declare the LORD’s feasts as holy gatherings and to observe a Sabbath of rest. Six days are for work, while the seventh is a holy assembly with no work.
Neville's Inner Vision
The feasts are not distant rituals but inner states of your consciousness. The LORD spoken of is the I AM within you. The six days of work symbolize the ongoing activity of thought and effort; the seventh day represents a shift into rest, an inner assembly where you cease striving and acknowledge the presence of God within. When you proclaim these feasts in their seasons, you align your inner climate with a divine rhythm you can choose through inner decree. By the practice of assumption, you enter the feast now and feel the rest, unity, and blessing as if already present. The Sabbath in all your dwellings becomes the constant awareness that the I AM is the source of rest, not the external conditions. Thus, the outward events become the expression of your inner order, the visible proof of your loyalty to the covenant of consciousness: holiness realized through awareness, not ritual alone.
Practice This Now
Choose one moment today and assume you are already in the feast—resting in the I AM. Feel it-real, then let that inner rest inform your next actions.
