Inner Family Harmony in Micah 7:6
Micah 7:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Micah 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Micah 7:6 depicts family strife—sons dishonoring fathers, daughters opposing mothers—and notes that enemies often arise from within one’s own household. It uses the domestic scene as a measure of the soul's condition.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's psychology, the son, the daughter, the mother, and the father are not people but states of consciousness inside you. The verse’s 'enemy in the house' is the belief in separation between parts of your own mind. When you feel judgment, resentment, or fear toward a family member, you are not defending an outer foe but negotiating your alignment with the I AM. The only real ruler in your life is the I AM, the awareness that stands behind every thought. To heal the yoke of domestic discord, you must revise the story you are living: claim unity of all inner voices, forgive the imagined slights, and affirm that in your consciousness there is only one household—governed by love, wisdom, and oneness. Practice the assumption that every conflict contains the seed of unity, and that by honoring each aspect as a facet of your own being, the sense of enemies within dissolves. Persist in the feeling that you are the unifying I AM, and your outward conditions will reflect that inner harmony.
Practice This Now
Sit in quiet and revise the inner scene: see your family members as aspects of yourself listening to you, and feel the unity of one mind. Close with the spoken affirmation, 'There is only I AM here, and harmony now.'
