The I Am's Boundaries

1 Samuel 24:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Samuel 24 in context

Scripture Focus

13As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
1 Samuel 24:13

Biblical Context

Wickedness is said to come from the wicked, but the speaker asserts his hands will not be used to harm; the verse points to inner divine boundaries and Providence at work in life.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the language of the inner life, the proverb speaks of a law written in consciousness: wickedness is the product of a mind separated from the I AM. The speaker’s declaration, 'mine hand shall not be upon thee,' is not a threat but a testament that true power operates from inner alignment with God, not from retaliation. When you read this through Neville's lens, you see that any urge to harm another arises from a disturbed state within your own mind; the outer scene merely reflects the inner weather. Providence acts through awareness, and the one who stands in the I AM is held by a gentleness that refuses to strike. Therefore, your work is to dwell in the consciousness of innate safety, to revise fear into faith, and to imagine the world responding from that center of peace. By aligning with the I AM, you observe that what looks like threat is simply a call to return to divine order, ensuring justice and hope flow from within rather than from force.

Practice This Now

Assume the feeling: I AM the boundary of my own life; nothing external can harm the core of my consciousness. Then revise any impulse to retaliate and imagine the situation resolved in divine order.
