The Price Of Inner Worth
Zechariah 11:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Zechariah 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse presents a scene where the speaker asks others to name his price; if they think good, they pay; otherwise they forbear. They weighed thirty pieces of silver.
Neville's Inner Vision
Zechariah 11:12 invites us to observe how a life is valued in the eyes of others, and how quickly worldly price can seem to determine worth. In Neville's method, the price is never the coins themselves but the inner measurement you assign to your own consciousness. The thirty pieces of silver symbolize a standard of value external to the I AM—money, approval, the safety of the crowd. When you acknowledge that you have the authority to name your own price, you reclaim your freedom: you are the one who says, 'this is worth my light, this is worth my truth.' The scene asks you to notice when you accept a price that diminishes your inner state, and to revise it by returning to your essential I AM, the awareness that precedes conditions. Through assumption and feeling-it-real, you can shift from barter with the world to a steadfast consciousness that your provision flows from within. The outer price becomes a mirror, showing you where you still bargain away your divinity.
Practice This Now
In a moment of quiet, imagine you are weighing your life on a balance. Replace thirty pieces of silver with a seal that reads 'I Am Priceless' and declare, 'I set my price by the I AM.' Then feel the reality of that inner wealth.
