Inner Alignment Over Lip Service
Mark 7:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Mark 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Mark 7:6 reveals that outward homage without inner conviction is hollow. It points to the gap between lips that speak worship and the heart's true movement.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the ear of man, Jesus calls 'hypocrites' those whose lips profess reverence while the heart remains elsewhere. In Neville's terms, the 'heart' is the state of consciousness you inhabit, and the 'lip service' is the shadow of a belief that is not fully claimed. If inner conviction and outward speech do not harmonize, the I AM remains scattered, and true worship remains unseen in you. The remedy is not to scold the mouth, but to revise the inner state until alignment feels natural. Assume that you are already the truth you affirm; dwell in the feeling that your heart and your words are one. When you hold that I AM as your living center, actions and words follow with ease, and you experience a seamless, luminous worship—not as ritual, but as the music of inner certainty made manifest. Practice by revising one moment where you spoke from fear and re-saying it from trust, until it feels real.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and repeat, 'I AM aligned now,' feeling the heart affirming the same truth your lips declare. Let this inner certainty rewrite any outward speech you offer today.
