Inner Wisdom Unearthed
Ecclesiastes 7:23-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ecclesiastes 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The speaker says he proved wisdom but could not grasp its fullness; the deep truth remains distant when pursued by intellect alone.
Neville's Inner Vision
All the striving to prove wisdom only exposes the distance between thought and the truth you are. In the Neville Goddard sense, Ecclesiastes 7:23-24 does not condemn your mind; it invites you to notice that the 'far off' is the misinterpretation of consciousness itself. God is the I AM within you, not a distant concept to be hunted. When you say, 'I will be wise,' you are still in the old drama of lack; the wisdom you seek is the very consciousness you already are. The deep and far-off thing you cannot grasp by outward effort dissolves the moment you assume the end: that you are the living, knowing I AM. Practice a revision: imagine the desired state as already true, then feel it in your chest as certainty, not thought. The inner movement becomes your reality, and outward events reflect the shift in awareness. Wisdom ceases to be a prize to seize and becomes the present power of awareness you embody.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe long, and revise: 'I am the wisdom of God in action within me; depth is mine now.' Feel that certainty saturate your chest and radiate into your surroundings.
