Prodigal Return: Inner Wealth Revealed

Luke 15:13-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 15 in context

Scripture Focus

13And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
14And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
Luke 15:13-16

Biblical Context

The prodigal son leaves home, wastes his fortune in a distant land, and ends in want amid famine and swine. This outward scene mirrors an inner turning toward realizing the Father within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Luke 15:13-16 the prodigal is not a separate boy but a state of mind. The far country is a mind drifted from the Father’s house, chasing sensory pleasures rather than the I AM. Wasting substance means misusing energy and attention; famine appears when the inner bank runs dry, revealing belief in separation from supply. Joining to a citizen of that country signifies yielding to a lower vibration, an allegiance to a lesser self, and the pen among swine becomes a symbol of compromise with baser appetites. The husks represent doctrines of lack we feed on when we forget that I AM within is the inexhaustible store. Then comes the turning point: recall dissolves lack as I remember my true being as the Father’s heir. The healing is an inward revision, not an alteration of outer circumstance—abundance, provision, and return are already here in consciousness. By assuming the truth of my own wholeness and speaking it till it feels real, the outward scene shifts. The prodigal’s journey becomes my awakening: I come home to the one life and feast on the reality of being.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine the prodigal returning to the Father's house. Speak silently, 'I AM wealth here now,' and feel the sense of inexhaustible supply filling every corner of your being.
