Inner Wealth, Outer Warnings

James 5:1-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read James 5 in context

Scripture Focus

1Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
James 5:1-3

Biblical Context

James 5:1-3 warns that wealth decays and will witness against the hoarder. It says riches, garments, and gold can rust, and such treasure is stored for the last days.

Neville's Inner Vision

James 5:1-3 invites us to turn away from imagining security in gold, garments, and cankered wealth. In Neville’s manner, I teach you to read the scene as a projection of your own inner state. The rust and corrosion are the consciousness clinging to external forms; the last days are simply the last days of a mind that identifies with possessions. Your true treasure lies in the I AM within, the unchangeable awareness that witnesses all shifting appearances. When you assume a new image, you revise the sense of self: I am the wealth that cannot fade; abundance is my natural state. Feel it now—your inner sense of sufficiency replacing fear of loss. By imagining and dwelling in this inner abundance, you awaken to conditions that reflect your revised feeling. The outer world may show change, yet you stand unchanged inside, and the inner state regenerates outer forms to match it. As you persist, the memory of rust loosens its grip, and your life becomes a clearer demonstration of consciousness, not of currency.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare in the I AM voice: I am wealth in consciousness; my riches rust only if I believe they can define me. Then breathe into the feeling of inner abundance until it feels real.
