Resting for Inner Redemption
Ruth 3:1-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ruth 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Naomi counsels Ruth to seek rest for her, and Ruth agrees to follow the plan to approach Boaz at the threshing floor. The scene signifies an inner readiness to receive blessing.
Neville's Inner Vision
Beloved, Naomi is the whisper of your higher self guiding Ruth—the faithful state within you—to seek rest, not mere shelter, but the security of covenant consciousness. Boaz is the inner law of abundance, the I AM ready to redeem any lack when you have prepared the self—wash, anoint, dress—and enter the space where old impressions settle. The threshing floor is the clearing where mental chaff is sifted; the instruction to wait until he has eaten invites your inner pictures to settle into conviction before you act. When Ruth is told to uncover his feet and lay down, she unveils the foundations of her beliefs and aligns with the authority of inner decree. Her reply, 'All that thou sayest unto me I will do,' mirrors your own willingness to be governed by the inner command rather than outer fear. The entire scene is a living parable of the I AM rearranging consciousness to yield rest, companionship, and blessing.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the feeling of rest and readiness now—wash your mind, anoint your thoughts, dress in confident expectation. In imagination, walk to the inner floor, uncover the foundations of limitation, and affirm, 'I am redeemed in this moment.'
