Inner Wealth, Honest Speech

Proverbs 15:27-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 15 in context

Scripture Focus

27He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
Proverbs 15:27-28

Biblical Context

Greed harms the home; those who hate gifts live with integrity. The righteous study to answer, while the wicked pour out evil words.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, wealth is a state of consciousness, not a purse. To be greedy of gain is to concede that security rests outside yourself; such a posture unsettles your inner home and invites trouble into your life. To hate gifts is to refuse the lure of external validation, choosing life by an inner, stable law of integrity. The heart of the righteous studies to answer — this is inner discipline: you pause, envision the exact reply in your mind, and align your word with truth before it leaves your lips. The mouth of the wicked pours out evil things when fear governs the voice; envy, resentment, and grasping thoughts spill into speech and shape your world. Now, Neville’s method: imagine you are the I AM, the unshakable observer; revise the scene to reflect abundance born of right choice. See that wealth is the outer echo of inner alignment; when your inner state is pure, your words and deeds reflect that certainty, and your home becomes a sanctuary of peace.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: In a moment of quiet, assume the state of the righteous who studies to answer. Visualize a tempting offer and revise your spoken reply into a calm, truthful sentence, feeling it as real now.
