Elim of Inner Abundance
Numbers 33:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 33 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
They moved from Marah to Elim, arriving at a place of abundance with twelve fountains and seventy palms. They pitched there and rested.
Neville's Inner Vision
Elim is not a place on a map but a state of consciousness you enter when the mind ceases to identify with scarcity. The Twelve Fountains symbolize inexhaustible streams of inspiration and assurance flowing into your awareness, while the seventy palms reflect a generous Presence that shelters and sustains you. The exodus from Marah to Elim is your inner shift from grievance to trust, a conversion of hardship into nourishment through the I AM that animates you. Providence becomes a present, not a distant promise, as you inhabit the inner landscape where water and shade are already provided. When you interpret your life as the journey of consciousness, you discover that your camp is set by your conviction, not by external conditions. Rest is a mental state you choose, purchased by faith that God's Presence is now.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and affirm, 'I am now in Elim, an inner place of twelve fountains and seventy palms.' Feel the nourishment and Presence as already given, and let this revised state shape your day.
