Craving Flesh, Finding Faith
Numbers 11:4-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The Israelites lament a lack of flesh, recalling Egypt's foods. They insist the manna is insufficient and long for more.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the 'mixt multitude' is a chorus of old desires clinging to identity and pleasure. The complaint is not merely about food; it expresses a belief that true supply comes from outside and from the forms of the past. In Neville's psychology, this is a states-of-consciousness moment: the soul has forgotten its I AM and is hungry for an outside correction. Manna stands as the daily spiritual bread—present nourishment available here and now—yet the mind fixates on Egypt because it mistakes sensations for reality. To restore harmony, one must revise the assumption: imagine yourself already fed by the abundance of God, secure in the awareness that the infinite supply is your inward state. Feel it real until the sense of lack dissolves. When you acknowledge the I AM as source, the old craving quiets and Providence becomes experienced as your actual state rather than an external event. The wilderness becomes a training ground where consciousness learns to rest in fullness rather than yearn for former favors.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the I AM; I feed on God's abundance now.' Then imagine a table of light within you that satisfies every sense, and dwell in that feeling of fullness for a minute.
