Inner Choir of Praise
Nehemiah 12:46 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Nehemiah 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David and Asaph led old days’ choirs, chief singers, with songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. The verse invites you to see worship as an inner order you can awaken in yourself.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner geology of Neville’s teaching, these days live now as states of consciousness. The chief singer is the quiet center in you, the I AM that calls forth gratitude and tunes the mind to God’s presence. When you dwell as that singer, your inner chorus leads every thought into praise, and the sense of separation softens into harmony. The “songs of thanksgiving” are not outward ritual but an inner cadence: appreciation that God is and you are that presence. As you assume the role, you revise any belief of lack, you feel the reality of your state, and you watch the outer scene bloom to match your inner praise. The volume of your awareness rises, and you hear the ancient cadence echoing in the present—worship becomes your daily awareness, and presence follows as you remain the singer.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: assume the role of the chief singer in your inner temple and, for a minute, silently declare 'I am the singer of praise now,' feeling gratitude until presence becomes tangible.
