Safety Through Inner Counsel

Proverbs 11:14-15 - 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.
15He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure.
Proverbs 11:14-15

Biblical Context

Without counsel, the people fall; with the multitude of counselors, there is safety. Pledging oneself as surety for another is risky; true security rests in shared discernment and responsible action.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember, the scripture never speaks of men and laws apart from your inner life. When you believe there is no counsel, you feel the people spin and stumble; when you imagine a multitude of counselors within, safety arises as a natural state of your I AM. The different voices are not external advisers but aspects of your own awareness—discernment, responsibility, love for neighbor, unity. You are not asking others to bear your burdens; you are aligning with a wiser center that knows how to choose, when to trust, and how to protect the whole you are. The notion of being surety for a stranger is simply a fear-based image you keep hoping will secure you. Let it go. The moment you revise that image and affirm, 'I am safety now, because I am surrounded by inner counsel,' you create a field where events bend to your choice. The outer world reflects your inner harmony; your decisions, once made in the circle of inner counsel, become acts of wisdom rather than peril.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I am safety now, surrounded by inner counselors.' Visualize a circle of wise voices within you, then act on your next decision as if it comes from that council.
