Echoes of Instruction, Honor Realized

Proverbs 13:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 13 in context

Scripture Focus

18Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.
Proverbs 13:18

Biblical Context

Poverty and shame come to those who refuse instruction. Those who regard reproof are honored.

Neville's Inner Vision

Refusal to instruction is a stubborn state of consciousness—a belief you must go your own way apart from the wiser inner voice. In that conviction you attract poverty and shame, for you separate yourself from the discipline that nourishes growth. Instruction is the gentle call of your I AM, the higher self urging you to revise, reframe, and realign your state. When you regard reproof as a blessing rather than a blow, you shift your inner atmosphere; you stand in harmony with the law that imagination obeys: think and you become. Honor is not in approval from others, but in the felt truth of being rightly ordered by the divine within. To change, assume the state that already enjoys correction as fellowship with your source. Revisit a memory of a past refusal and revise it with the feeling, 'I am guided; I am already the kind of self who welcomes truth.'

Practice This Now

Assume the state that welcomes instruction now. Revise a past refusal in imagination and feel the honor that correction brings.
