Inner Inheritance, Outer Wealth
Proverbs 13:22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse contrasts a righteous, enduring inheritance with wealth that seems laid up for the just. It hints at the inner law that governs outward provision.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the line as a description of states of consciousness, not a ledger of coins. A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children—this is the state you harbor now, a living idea that survives your own life, a perpetuated awareness your descendants feel as certainty. The wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just—this is not about punishing the wicked, but about the universal current that shifts with your inner alignment. When you speak and truly feel 'I AM,' the outer world rearranges to reflect your inner image. The sinner’s riches appearing to the righteous is the law of circulation: belief that provision is scarce dissolves as you inhabit sufficiency. In this reading, wealth is not hoarded coins but the clarity, discipline, and generosity of consciousness that outlives you. The promise rests on your capacity to imagine wealth as a living idea that supports life, not merely a pot of gold. So your task is to cultivate the inner inheritance by maintaining a steady sense of providence, stewardship, and creation-care in every moment.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the feeling of this inheritance now—say to yourself, 'I am the inheritor of lasting abundance'—and hold that image for a minute, revising any doubt until it feels true.
