Anger as Inner Alarm

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville Goddard perspective, this verse is not a moral injunction against anger but a map of consciousness. You are not told to suppress a feeling, but to refuse letting a moment of anger fix itself as reality. When you feel anger, you are witnessing a state of consciousness that has believed itself separate from wholeness. Do not let the sun go down on wrath by dwelling in it as your final truth. The devil is simply the old belief that you are the poor instrument of circumstance; it has no power over the I AM when you align with the immutable awareness that you are imagining your world. Assume a new state: I AM at peace now; I choose to see this situation through loving discernment; the feeling of wrath passes when you stop identifying with it. By holding the conviction that you are the creator of your inner climate, the outer scene rearranges itself to reflect your revised state. The moment you revise, you are free; the devil loses its place.
