Neville Goddard on Micah 2:3-5 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Micah 2 in context

Scripture Focus

3Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil.

4In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.

5Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.

Micah 2:3-5

Biblical Context

God pronounces judgment on a family, foretelling irreversible loss as their portion is removed and their fields divided. The verse also says no one in the congregation will cast lots, signaling a decisive shift in their life.

Neville's Inner Vision

From a Neville Goddard perspective, the 'evil' pronounced against the family is not an external fate but a projection of a fallen inner state. The line 'this time is evil' marks a moment when the mind believes its portion has been ripped away and that its abundance is no longer secure. 'We be utterly spoiled' becomes a vivid image of separation from your own good, while 'he hath changed the portion of my people' shows the mind’s habit of attributing outcomes to forces outside the self. The remedy is a shift in consciousness: awaken to the I AM within and revise the story by assuming a different condition. When you insist that your inner self is the sole dispenser of your portion, no external cast of lots can determine your fate. The 'congregation of the LORD' represents your inner community of awareness; in that circle there is no random arrangement to produce loss, for your good flows from the essence of you. In that day—the moment of awakening—the inner economy is restored and unity with abundance becomes your immediate experience.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and assume the state that your good is secured now. Revise the memory of division by affirming, 'I am the I AM; my portion is mine now,' and feel abundance already present.
