Own Your Firstborn Consciousness
Leviticus 27:26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 27 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse states that the firstborn of the beasts belongs to the LORD. It cannot be sanctified by human ritual; it is reserved for God.
Neville's Inner Vision
Observe, dear one, that Leviticus does not whisper a rule for priests to bless a creature, but speaks of a state of consciousness that is already set apart. The firstborn, in scripture, represents the leading thought, the earliest energy of life within you. It is not to be 'sanctified' by man’s acts, but acknowledged as owned by the LORD—the I AM behind all experiencing. When you imagine that leading impulse as belonging to God, you cease treating it as mere possession to be managed by willpower. You align with a higher law: the holiness of consciousness itself. To worship truly is not performing rites, but granting fidelity to the I AM, allowing the firstborn thought to remain under divine ownership, free from manipulation. In this light, loyalty to the Covenant becomes allegiance to your inner STATE—the awareness that you are not the doer of the thought, but the witness to its LORD-ship. As you honor this principle, your inner life becomes clean, integrated, and capable of steady, pure action.
Practice This Now
Practice: as soon as a leading thought arrives, declare inwardly, 'This is the LORD's; I AM the owner of this thought.' Then feel the reality of that ownership by resting in the I AM and watching the thought pass like a cloud.
