Awed By Inner Wisdom
Job 37:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Job 37 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
People fear God, and the verse says He does not honor the 'wise of heart'—the mind’s self-sufficiency apart from God. It points to inner alignment with Awareness over outward cleverness.
Neville's Inner Vision
To understand Job 37:24 in Neville’s key, see fear as awe before the I AM, not terror of punishment. The 'wise of heart' is the mind that believes it can run the show without the Presence within. God’s regard is reserved for the inner state that lives as the I AM, the awareness that creates, sustains, and orders the world. When you cling to clever thoughts or proud conclusions, you cut yourself off from the fountain of life and invite fear. But when you rest in the realization that you are the I AM, and that this inner Presence is the only true source of wisdom, your life responds with ease and quiet power. The verse invites you to drop the illusion that intellect alone commands favor and to align your heart with conscious being. Practice this alignment and notice how your outer scenes rearrange to reflect the inward royal consciousness.
Practice This Now
Assume the I AM presence as your sole source of wisdom; revise the belief that 'wise of heart' means power. Feel that inner awareness as already yours now.
