Neville Goddard on Micah 2:6-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Micah 2 in context

Scripture Focus

6Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.

7O thou that art named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?

Micah 2:6-7

Biblical Context

The verse rejects hollow prophecy that shames others. It asserts that the Spirit is not restricted and that God's word blesses the upright.

Neville's Inner Vision

Micah 2:6–7 invites you to stop prophesying from fear of human judgment and to consider whether the Spirit of the LORD is truly straitened in you. The verse names the inner theater: the 'house of Jacob' is your own consciousness; the 'words' are the movements of your thoughts. If you believe prophecy cannot speak here, you are admitting a limitation that never came from God but from your own sense of lack. When you entertain that the Spirit moves freely—unbounded by others’ judgments—your words become a healing force that does good to the upright you. In Neville’s practice, you acknowledge that the I AM, the awareness you are, is not constrained by circumstance; reality follows the state you persist in imagining. So revise the assumption: the Lord’s Spirit is not straitened; your inner speech can align with truth, grace, and obedience, and thus your outward life reflects that faithful, wholesome movement.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the upright state now—feel the Spirit moving freely within you. Let your next spoken word arise from that inner reality, not fear.
