Inner Council for Safety

Proverbs 11:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 11 in context

Scripture Focus

14Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
Proverbs 11:14

Biblical Context

The verse shows that without guidance the people stumble; with many counsellors there is safety. It invites you to seek inner guidance as your true safety.

Neville's Inner Vision

All life, in this reading, is a state of consciousness. The 'people' who fall are the parts of you that drift from alignment with the I AM, the living awareness you call God within. The 'counsel' is not only opinions from others but the distinct voices of your own inner faculties—memory, intuition, conscience, and the whisper of divine imagination. When you feel cut off from guidance, you lean on a single thought and stumble; when you entertain a multitude of counsellors inside, you invite safety as a natural condition of consciousness. The moment you refuse to settle for one opinion and invite the full cabinet of inner voices to weigh in, you discover there is a path that feels sure, oriented by a wiser sense beyond fear. The 'multitude' is your capacity to imagine different angles, to test a choice by inner feedback, and to revise until the scene aligns with wholeness. Safety comes not from external advice but from the inner arrangement of your thoughts, harmonized with the I AM.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and invite your inner council to speak on a current decision. Listen for a clear felt sense and revise your assumption to 'I am guided by the multitude of inner counselors, and safety now surrounds me.'
