Root of the Righteous Fruit

Proverbs 12:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 12 in context

Scripture Focus

12The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
Proverbs 12:12

Biblical Context

The verse contrasts the wicked chasing nets with the righteous bearing fruit from a rooted inner life.

Neville's Inner Vision

Proverbs 12:12 speaks as a drama of consciousness: the wicked long for nets, while the righteous source fruit from a rooted inner life. In Neville's terms, the entire scene is a state of mind in action. The wicked chase traps because they identify with a future of lack, a belief in separation that builds nets of limitation. The righteous, by contrast, are rooted in a single, stable awareness--I AM--whose presence remains unchanged as conditions shift. When I dwell in that rooted state, fruit appears: clarity of purpose, steady growth, the harvest of choices made in alignment with my true self. The root is unseen yet active; as I imagine from the end, I become the very reality I seek. Remember that places are inner dispositions, events are inner movements, and God is the I AM within. The fruit is merely the consistent outflow of the conviction that I am already complete. So I live from that interior harvest, and the world answers in kind, reflecting the fruit born of my inner root.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and rest in I AM as your only reality; declare, I am rooted and I bear fruit now. Visualize a concrete fruit of your choosing already in your life, and feel it as certain.
