Inner Land Sabbath Rest
Leviticus 26:43 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 26 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The land is left to rest in desolation as punishment for despising divine judgments. Restoration comes when a new covenantal consciousness is chosen.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this moment, take the land not as geography but as the stage of your mind. The 'desolation' you observe is the outer sign of an inner refusal to acknowledge the authority of your I AM, the living Judgment that calls you back to alignment. Leviticus speaks of remaining days of rest for the land when you refuse to keep the judgments; it is really a mirror of your own inner refusal to obey the statutes of your true self. But notice this: nothing external can undo you unless you permit it by assuming you are separate from your God-state. The situation is an invitation to revise your state of consciousness. When you accept the punishment as a deposit into your new self, you stop resisting and instead imagine the land made anew—sabbaths restored, cycles renewed—by your conscious assumption that you are the I AM, the source of all order. Your present desolation dissolves only as you return to your true covenant inwardly.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling: I am the I AM, and this land is at rest. Then revise any lack by repeating: Rest is my natural state and I dwell in it now.
