Neville Goddard on Micah 6:8-12 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Micah 6 in context

Scripture Focus

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?

9The LORD's voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.

10Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?

11Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?

12For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

Micah 6:8-12

Biblical Context

Micah 6:8–12 asks what is truly good: to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with God. It also critiques deceit, violence, and crooked measures in the inner life.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville Goddard reading, the inner man is the place where truth is discovered. God is not a distant judge but the I AM within your consciousness. The voice crying to the city is your inner wisdom, the ‘man of wisdom,’ urging you to see beyond appearances. The rod is inner correction—an invitation to revise your thoughts and feel your life aligning with justice, mercy, and humility. The ‘treasures of wickedness’ and the ‘scant measure’ are inner attitudes: misaligned beliefs and patterns that tilt the scales of reality. The “rich” who are violent symbolize aggressive mental patterns; deceitful tongues represent beliefs that mask truth. When you assume you are already just, merciful, and humble—walking with God in present awareness—you tune your state of consciousness and invite outer conditions to reflect that harmony. Your name is seen by your inner wisdom, revealing your true nature as consciousness rather than outward reputation.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume you are already the just, merciful, and humble I AM living in you; feel that alignment now as if it were your present experience. Then revise any judgment of others by affirming inner truths until your world reflects inner balance.
