The Inner Law and Reward

2 Samuel 22:21-23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 22 in context

Scripture Focus

21The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
2 Samuel 22:21-23

Biblical Context

The LORD rewards the righteous according to their righteousness and the cleanness of their hands, because they have kept the LORD's ways and have not departed from Him.

Neville's Inner Vision

The passage invites you to see obedience not as external rule-keeping, but as the inner alignment of your consciousness with the divine order within. The “ways of the LORD” are the habitual patterns of thought, feeling, and decision that reflect your true I AM nature. When you keep these inner statutes—your judgments aligned with truth—you no longer depart from the God within. The reward is not a wasteful external compensation, but a vivid sense of order, clarity, and consistent results that flow from an unshakable inner discipline. Your mind becomes a vessel governed by an inner law, and life unfolds with a steady rhythm that echoes your fidelity to that law. See the inner reward as the felt reality of harmony between your desires and your inner discernment, a state where every choice is guided by the quiet promptings of the higher self. Practice this by assuming you are the one who has kept the Lord’s ways, and let that state mature as your daily reality.

Practice This Now

Choose a current issue and quietly declare: 'I am governed by the inner Lord; I keep the statutes of God within me.' Then live from that certainty for the next 24 hours, noticing how thoughts, decisions, and outcomes reflect a more orderly alignment.
