Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon asked for understanding to discern judgment; he did not seek personal gain. God grants him a uniquely wise and discerning heart.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, the verse is a declaration that inner state precedes outer fact. When Solomon asks for understanding to discern judgment, he is not seeking something from outside; he is aligning his I AM with the capacity to judge rightly. The moment you cease chasing external wealth, you open a doorway in your consciousness where wisdom operates by law. God says He has granted the wise and understanding heart according to the inner word spoken by the seeker. In your practice, you do not plead with God; you reform your state. Assume that you already possess the faculty of true discernment. See yourself as Solomon, standing in the throne-room of your mind, turning over decisions with calm, nonreactive awareness. The outer signs—clear judgments, timely insights, and measured outcomes—follow from the inner conviction that you are the recognition of wisdom incarnate. Your imagination is not a trick but the instrument by which divine discernment takes form. Remain steady; do not bargain with God but align your awareness with the truth of your own I AM, and wisdom rises.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, assume you already possess a wise and understanding heart that can discern judgment. Revise your current state by silently affirming, 'I am the wise I AM in action,' and feel the clarity of inner discernment awakening.
