The Inner Locusts Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through a Neville Goddard lens, the locusts are not distant plagues but the marching thoughts and feelings that sweep through your consciousness when you forget your I AM. He spake is not a historical decree but the living Word within you—the assumption you hold about yourself in the present moment. When the inner declaration is fear, lack, or limitation, the corresponding frequencies of attention become the land you inhabit, and the crops you seem to harvest are eaten away by your belief in scarcity. The verse invites you to notice that an external barren scene mirrors an inward weather. Providence is not punishment; it is the natural correction of an inner picture that has forgotten its promises. By returning to the I AM, you revise the scene by quietly assuming abundance as your reality, and feeling the reality of that assumption: the land greens again, the fruit returns, and the devouring swarm dissolves as you stand in the truth of your creative power. The locusts vanish when the mind chooses a higher town of consciousness.
