Inner Riches Unseen

Proverbs 13:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 13 in context

Scripture Focus

7There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.
Proverbs 13:7

Biblical Context

Proverbs 13:7 contrasts outward display of wealth with inner substance: some appear rich yet have nothing, while others who seem poor hold great inner riches.

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 13:7 speaks of a strange currency: outward display without inner substance, and inward poverty masking real riches. In Neville's vision, wealth is not a purse but a state of consciousness. Some "make themselves rich" by chasing status, keeping the outer signs while their awareness remains narrow, fearful, and dependent on others' approval. Yet true riches are not measured by coins but by the freedom and quiet abundance that arise when the I AM within is acknowledged as all-sufficient. When you stop measuring yourself by the world's ledger and begin to feel the unseen wealth as your constant awareness, you shift the inner movements that create your life. The man or woman who seems poor but holds a rich vision—trust, gratitude, and a spacious sense of sufficiency—already possesses the reality the world calls wealth. The key is to revise the sense of lack into that inner trust, to imagine you already live in an unassailable abundance, and to feel it as real in the moment.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, repeat 'I AM the wealth I seek' until it feels true, and revise any thought of lack into the assurance of inner abundance.
