Vows That Shape the Mind
Numbers 30:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 30 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
If a vow heard is later voided, the person bears the resulting inner consequence; keep your inner word steady, for it shapes your life.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your verse speaks not of contract as external obligation but of an inner vow made by your I AM. The man who 'hears' and then voids a declaration is simply refusing his own inner word, and thus carries the burden of the unresolved moment. In Neville’s terms, every decision you make in your mind is a state of consciousness you must inhabit. When you hear a vow and then undo it with doubt, you unseat the end you sought and wound your sense of self; you bear the 'iniquity' because you refused to act as the state you claimed to be. The remedy is not punishment but reintegration: align your awareness with the vow until it stands as fact in your imagination, feel its consequence as if it were already done, and let that feeling saturate your nervous system. Return to the original assumption, reaffirm it with the I AM, and do not vacillate. Remember: God, your I AM, does not void its word; you must not either.
Practice This Now
Practice: right after you hear or form a vow, close your eyes, say 'I AM that I AM' and assume the end; feel it as real now, and refuse to void it.
