Inner Walls Restored
Nehemiah 1:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Nehemiah 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Nehemiah 1:2-3 reports that the remnant in Jerusalem is in great affliction, with the wall broken down and the gates burned, after the captivity.
Neville's Inner Vision
Nehemiah 1:2-3 speaks to your inner life more than a historical city. Hanani, a brother, is the part of you that checks what is happening in your mind, and his report is the voice of awareness reporting on the state of your consciousness. The remnant left of the captivity are those threads of self that endured fear, doubt, and limitation; their affliction and reproach are the weather of a mind identified with lack. The broken wall and the burnt gates illustrate how you have believed boundaries between yourself and life are torn, how safety and order are temporarily lost. In Neville’s practice, you do not repair the city from without; you revise the inner assumption until the experience itself shifts. See the city as your awareness, the I AM in whom all events arise. The remnant becomes raw material for renewal when you align with the truth that you are not defined by captivity but by the I AM that never left your side. Begin now by lifting your consciousness above the ruin and imagining the walls standing firm and the gates restored, and dwell in that feeling as if it is already true.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise the scene to a fully rebuilt Jerusalem—walls intact, gates strong. Feel the peace as if this restoration is already true, and carry that feeling into your day.
