Inner Counsel and Timed Words

Proverbs 15:22-23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 15 in context

Scripture Focus

22Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
23A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!
Proverbs 15:22-23

Biblical Context

Proverbs 15:22-23 teaches that success comes from inner consultation; plans falter without counsel, but wise purposes are established when many inner voices align, and timely speech brings joy.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's view, the 'counsel' is not external advisors but the diverse states of consciousness you entertain within. When you withhold inner counsel, your purposes drift and outcomes become uncertain. By inviting a multitude of inner counselors—your I AM, your higher self, and the desired end state—you establish your aim through alignment of inner states, not force. The 'answer of his mouth' represents the inner speech that harmonizes with the feeling of already having what you seek; 'due season' is the alignment of inner timing with your vibrational state. Practice circulating a chorus of empowering inner voices, and let the most trustworthy one speak with clarity and authority. As you repeat that word with conviction, you trigger the law of assumption, and joy arises as the outer world echoes the settled inner state. The verse thus teaches that true counsel and true speech, aligned in consciousness, draw results into manifestation.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes; in the theater of your mind invite the multitude of counselors—your wiser self, your desired outcome, the calm I AM—each offering a line of guidance. Then assume the verdict as if already spoken, and feel the joy of the timely word as you repeat it with conviction.
