Deliverance Through Knowledge — Proverbs 11:7-9
Proverbs 11:7-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage contrasts the fate of the wicked with the deliverance of the righteous; words can harm, but knowledge brings deliverance.
Neville's Inner Vision
This line invites you to see the scenes of fate as inner states. When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish—the dream he clings to dies as he lives in a consciousness of lack and attack. The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead: as your inner state shifts, trouble moves aside and a different neighbor appears, the mirror of your new awareness. An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered. Knowledge here is the awareness that you are already the I AM, the living law within you that restores order. Your imagination is the instrument by which you revise the scene; deliverance is not promised in some distant future but proven whenever you dwell in the unwavering presence of truth. Rest your attention on the one power within you that never fails, and your life will reflect that delivered state.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume the state of deliverance now by silently declaring, 'I am delivered from all trouble by knowledge,' and feel it real with each breath; if fear arises, revise the scene to align with the I AM and its certainty.
