Inner Discretion and Prosperity

Proverbs 11:22-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 11 in context

Scripture Focus

22As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
23The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
Proverbs 11:22-24

Biblical Context

Discretion and generosity shape true value. Desire aligned with righteousness yields good, while fear-driven withholding breeds poverty.

Neville's Inner Vision

These verses invite me to examine my inner state rather than my outward appearance. A jewel of gold in a swine's snout represents any beauty or virtue in me that lacks inner discretion; without discernment, it loses its value in my consciousness. When I am grounded as I AM, the desires of the righteous become my own: good, unmixed with fear, and directed toward blessing. The wicked's wrath is but the projection of a mind clinging to lack. The principle of increase belongs to the mind that scatters—in thought, word, and deed—trusting the flow of life. There is that scatters, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. As I release judgment and give freely, my inner wealth circulates and returns to me in forms I can perceive. Wealth is not accumulation but the right circulation of consciousness in harmony with I AM. I am the source of all supply, and by aligning my inner state, I witness prosperity manifesting outwardly.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling of being a fountain of good. Revise lack into 'I AM is my plenty,' and feel the energy of scattering—giving and receiving as one movement.
