Neville Goddard on Micah 2:1-2 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Micah 2 in context

Scripture Focus

1Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.

2And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.

Micah 2:1-2

Biblical Context

The passage condemns those who plot evil and, with power in their hands, seize land and houses, oppressing others.

Neville's Inner Vision

What Micah describes is not mere social policy but a state of consciousness in operation. 'They' devise iniquity and practice it when morning comes because power in the hand is the belief that one can force reality. Fields, houses, and heritage are symbols of the inner possessions one refuses to relinquish—habits of greed that tighten the heart and separate neighbor from kin. When you identify with such a consciousness, you live under oppression, for you have made scarcity a law in your own mind. Neville's method says: nothing external changes until the inner story changes. If you imagine yourself as the I AM with abundance, free from the need to control others, the harsh outer scenes soften and rearrange. The moment you entertain generosity and justice as real, you dissolve the belief in scarcity. Your inner world becomes the law; the outer field reflects it.

Practice This Now

Tonight, revise with the feeling 'I am the I AM that owns nothing, and yet has access to all; I shed the need to own lands or lives and choose generosity and lawful justice in my mind.' Then imagine a scene of neighbors sharing and thriving, feeling it as real.
