Mount Zion Deliverance Within
Obadiah 1:17-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Obadiah 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
On Mount Zion there is deliverance and holiness, and the house of Jacob will possess their possessions. The prophecy images a turning of power and territory as saviors arise and the kingdom belongs to the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
On Mount Zion, deliverance is not a distant event but a shift of consciousness. Holiness is a state of awareness, a keeping apart from thoughts that limit you, where the house of Jacob possesses its possessions by the conviction that the I AM is your awareness and imagination is the instrument of reality. The house of Jacob becomes a fire and Joseph a flame; this speaks of the merging of will and understanding, while Esau's stubble is burned by the insistence that you are already what you seek. When Esau's power is consumed, the mind gains access to its own fields—south, Philistines, Ephraim, Samaria—internal realms you now possess as faculties and opportunities. The captivity of Israel and Jerusalem becoming possessors of the south shows that even past bondage can be redeemed by awareness that the kingdom belongs to the LORD. Saviors rise on Mount Zion—the new states of consciousness that judge the old. The kingdom is the LORD's, which is to say: your I AM rules, and your life follows the image you hold.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already deliverance on Mount Zion; feel holiness as a clear awareness and revise any sense of lack. Imagine, right now, you possess the inner riches and faculties you seek, and let your life reflect the kingdom that is yours by the I AM.
