Seeds of the Inner Kingdom

Mark 4:30-32 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Mark 4 in context

Scripture Focus

30And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?
31It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
32But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
Mark 4:30-32

Biblical Context

The kingdom is likened to a mustard seed. From that small start, it grows into something greater, offering shelter.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the mustard seed as a state of consciousness you have planted in the soil of imagination. The earth is your inner attention; the sun is your feeling of I AM, your awareness that refuses doubt. When you ask, Where shall I liken the kingdom? you are being guided to observe that the kingdom is not a distant place but a quality growing within. The tiny seed is the belief you entertain about life, health, opportunity; when sown by steady attention and feeling, it roots beneath daily events. It does not burst forth by force but by patient alchemy: revision of every thought that contradicts your chosen image, daily affirmations that I AM the embodiment of that image, and the feeling of it real right now. As the seed breaks ground, your outer world—people, circumstances, chances—comes to shelter under the shade of its branches. Do not look for evidence in the literal, but feel the life of the kingdom as your own inward reality, and the outer signs will follow.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit with eyes closed, place a tiny mustard seed in your chest and declare, I AM the Kingdom of God within me. Revise a present limitation into a seed of growth and, for one minute, feel the life lifting from that seed into your body.
