Neville Goddard on Zephaniah 3:11-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Zephaniah 3 in context

Scripture Focus

11In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.

12I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.

13The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

14Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.

Zephaniah 3:11-14

Biblical Context

The verses describe a future where pride is removed, a humble remnant trusts in the LORD, and the people live honestly, without fear, and sing for joy.

Neville's Inner Vision

Zephaniah 3:11–14 invites you to a conscious reversal. The day spoken of is the inner day you awaken to the I AM. Pride and boastfulness drop away not by effort but by the realization that the mountain of holiness is within you. I will remove those attached to pride from your inner circle; you are no longer ruled by a haughty imagination. I leave in your midst a remnant—the afflicted and poor in spirit—those who trust the NAME of the LORD within. This remnant is your true self: honest, fearless, and free of deceitful tongues, for fear cannot survive where trust is present. You shall feed and lie down in this state, and none shall frighten you. Sing and rejoice with all your heart, for you have found the inner Zion. By assuming you are this remnant now, by feeling it real as your present experience, your outer world will align; the prideful mountain dissolves and joy becomes your natural condition.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are the remnant trusting in the LORD within; feel the fear melt as trust fills your heart. Rest there until the I AM is vivid and joy becomes your natural state.
