Proverbs 12:15-16 Inner Counsel
Proverbs 12:15-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Fools think their own way is right; wisdom comes by heeding counsel. Wrath exposes foolishness, while prudence covers shame through restraint.
Neville's Inner Vision
Verse 12:15-16 speaks to the state of your I AM. The 'way of a fool' is the fixed idea that I alone know what is right; it is a mental posture, a belief that does not bow to inner counsel. To read this through the Neville lens is to see the world as a dream of consciousness: when you imagine yourself convinced of your view, you reinforce a segment of self that acts apart from the whole. The moment you choose to 'hearken unto counsel' you awaken to the unity of I AM and all that you perceive; you align with the inner voice that knows the right response before the mind can rationalize. The 'fool's wrath' is merely a temporary outburst of unresolved emotion that marks a split in your state; by choosing a prudent imagination you cover that shame by returning to an integrated self—one who listens, yields, and acts from a higher discernment. Practice: assume the inner council is guiding you now; feel the relief of agreement between your outer decision and your inner, eternal I AM. In that alignment, your life becomes a wise, steady answer to every circumstance.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'I AM the I AM; I hear the inner counsel now.' Then visualize calmly hearing guidance and acting in harmony with it, feeling the shift in your body.
