Neville Goddard on Matthew 14:18-21 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Matthew 14 in context

Scripture Focus

18He said, Bring them hither to me.

19And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

20And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

21And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

Matthew 14:18-21

Biblical Context

Jesus blesses five loaves and two fishes, gives them to his disciples to distribute, and all eat until they are satisfied, with twelve baskets left over.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, this scene unfolds as the drama of consciousness. When 'they' bring the loaves and fish to 'me'—to the I AM you are—your sense of limitation dissolves. Looking up to heaven is the turning within, the acceptance that all supply is God and you are It. The blessing is your recognition; to bless is to claim that lack has no power here. Breaking the sense of scarcity and giving to the disciples—your thoughts and deeds—releases your inner wealth to the world. The feeding of the multitude becomes your daily experience: plenty, nourishment, and even leftovers. The twelve baskets left behind symbolize fullness that cannot run dry. This is the key: supply is the state you inhabit. If you dwell in the I AM as your only source and feel it as real, generosity flows through you, Providence guides every choice, and grace makes your needs a finished fact in consciousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, assume 'I AM the supply' is true now, bless your resources, and visualize distributing them to all needs until you feel fullness and leftovers appear.
