Inner Labor, Outer Life

Proverbs 10:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 10 in context

Scripture Focus

16The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.
Proverbs 10:16

Biblical Context

The labour of the righteous tendeth to life; the fruit of the wicked to sin. Plainly, the righteous man's work flows from inner alignment with life, while misalignment produces harm.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the verse as a mirror of your inner weather. The labour of the righteous is the persistent, quiet devotion to an inner posture—one that trusts the I AM as the source and sustainer. When you dwell in that oneness, life streams through every line of your day; energy, health, and purpose follow because your inner state is harmonized with life itself. The 'fruit of the wicked' is the mischief of doubt, fear, and separation—producing rebellion against the living presence within you, and thus sickness, lack, and failure appear as if from your own thoughts. Do not seek fruit in the world first; tend the root of consciousness. Every moment you can revise a fear as a belief in the I AM, and then feel it real. Your labour becomes a creative act of imagining the end now, and letting it rest in your being until it blooms as experience.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: For five minutes, assume the consciousness of the end now—feel the I AM expressing as life through you; quietly dwell in that vitality and let it sink into your body as real.
