Wise Rebuke Within

Ecclesiastes 7:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ecclesiastes 7 in context

Scripture Focus

5It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
Ecclesiastes 7:5

Biblical Context

It teaches that hearing wise correction is more valuable than following foolish entertainment. Correction sharpens discernment and fidelity to truth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine that every outer voice is a mirror of your inner state. The rebuke of the wise is not a punishment but a tuning fork for consciousness; listening to it aligns you with the I AM who never forgets your divine nature. The 'song of fools' is the constant clamor of egoic desire and distraction, pulling you away from truth and responsibility. When you welcome correction, you acknowledge that you are always the ruler of your own inner kingdom, and your beliefs act upon your world. The wise rebuke invites a revision of assumptions, a letting go of self-deception, and a returning to the quiet, steady presence of God within. In that moment, judgment becomes accountability to your own growth, not condemnation from without. By choosing to heed a higher voice, you cultivate discernment, integrity, and faithfulness to the I AM. Your life becomes a disciplined response to truth, not a slave to noise. Remember: your inner teacher speaks through you; you are the hearer and the author of your reality, guided by the rebuke that realigns your imagination with God.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Tonight, when you feel drawn to the 'song of fools,' pause and assume the wiser voice is present. Imagine a gentle rebuke from your higher self, thank it, and revise your current belief to align with the I AM.
