Neville Goddard on Micah 6:7-8 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Micah 6 in context

Scripture Focus

7Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

8He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Micah 6:7-8

Biblical Context

The passage questions ritual excess and points to inner righteousness. It commands doing justice, loving mercy, and walking humbly with God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the LORD you seek is the I AM within, the pure awareness that attends your every thought. The scripture’s question about thousands of rams or rivers of oil is a reminder that no external offering can craft lasting reality outside the self who believes. What is good is shown: to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. To interpret this in consciousness is to align your inner state with divine law. Do justly means act in harmony with the principle that your world mirrors your decisions; think, choose, and act as justice, and your life will answer accordingly. To love mercy is to cultivate a tenderness of heart, a nonjudgmental listening in every encounter, which softens every circumstance. To walk humbly with God is to acknowledge that you are the I AM's expression, not the ego’s demand. When you revise your sense of self to that inner truth, all external appearances become a testimony to your inner state, not a ritual to obtain favor. Assume the truth, and it becomes your experience.
