Inner Seed of Righteousness

Proverbs 11:18-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 11 in context

Scripture Focus

18The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
19As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.
20They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
21Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
Proverbs 11:18-21

Biblical Context

The verse speaks of seeds sown in consciousness: righteousness brings life and reward, while pursuing evil leads to death. The upright posture delights the Lord, and though the wicked scheme together, the seed of the righteous is delivered.

Neville's Inner Vision

All of this is about states of consciousness, not external names. The 'wicked' are the dream images that deceive you into separation from power; 'to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward' declares a law: once you persist in the right image, the reward must follow. When you plant the image of righteousness—truth, integrity, and harmony—life grows toward you as a natural consequence. Conversely, chasing evil is chasing a premature death; you drain your vitality whenever you entertain fear, lack, or coercion. The 'froward heart' is a stubborn alignment with grievance; the Lord delights in the upright, the inner state that trusts the I AM. 'Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished' is the notice that collective agreement cannot override the law of inner causation; yet 'the seed of the righteous shall be delivered' means your future lives in you now as the impression you hold. So pose yourself as the living seed of righteousness and dwell there until it irradiates every event.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume you are already the upright image you seek; revise any sense of lack with the feeling of abundance. Feel it real now and observe the outer life begin to reflect your inner seed.
