Inner Triumph Ephemeral Glory

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville Goddard perspective, the 'triumph of the wicked' is not a distant event but a movement of the soul's imagination. The verse names outward signs—exaltation, ascent toward the heavens—as if the self could stand above all. Yet the true victor is the I AM that remains unchanged while the scene shifts. When you identify with a persona—the prosperous ego, the praise of others—you inhabit that external drama; when you revise that identification, the stage dissolves and the appearing triumph is seen for what it is: a dream. Job’s words insist that what seems to endure in time is only a passing picture in consciousness; the law of life is everlasting, and your life mirrors the inner conviction you entertain. By turning from the dream of separation to the I AM within, you discover that no external outcome can truly threaten your essence. The ephemeral glory will vanish as a dream at night, while the lasting reality is the one who dwells in you as awareness.
