Inner Heave Offering
Numbers 18:26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Verse 18:26 instructs the Levites to take the tithes from Israel and offer a heave offering to the LORD, equal to a tenth of the tithe. It frames worship as a disciplined, percentage-based act of stewardship.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, this is not a history of offerings but a map of consciousness. The tithes represent the mind's energies—attention, time, and wealth—given into the care of your inner priesthood. The LORD within is the I AM, the unchanging awareness that receives and values every act. The Levites are the inner faculties that tend to worship; when you command them to take your tithes, you enlist your attention in the service of the higher self. The heave offering, a tenth, is the deliberate setting aside of a portion of your mental income for divine use—gratitude, faith, and the renewal of awareness. By receiving with trust and giving with joy, you align your external world with the inner state. Every act of stewardship becomes a vestibule of the inner temple, where abundance is not earned but realized by the heart that assumes its reality.
Practice This Now
Assume you give a tenth of your mental income to the LORD within now; feel the release as awareness expands and the inner temple brightens.
