Inner Inheritance Illuminated

Proverbs 19:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 19 in context

Scripture Focus

13A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
14House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the LORD.
Proverbs 19:13-14

Biblical Context

Plainly, the verses link household strife to inner folly, while stable, blessed households rely on wise partnership granted by the Lord. External inheritance is handed down by fathers, yet the truly precious state is the prudent discernment that comes from the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

The text invites you to see your world as a mirror of your inner states. A ‘foolish son’ is not a son in the house but a childish thought or impulse you have entertained and identified with; its calamity arises when you consent to that energy and act from it. The ‘contentions of a wife’ reflect inner chatter and discord that erode peace. Yet the lines also declare that house and riches are the inheritance of fathers—the outward world follows the steadiness you keep in consciousness. A ‘prudent wife’ from the LORD is the disciplined intelligence that comes when you align with God within, the harmonious partnership your imagination can partner with. When you dwell in the one I AM, imagine your life as already ordered: a secure home, reliable provision, and wise discernment shaping every choice. Your task is to revise with the assumption of order and to feel it as real, and the outer world must adjust to that inner truth.

Practice This Now

Assume the state: I AM within me now orders my home; feel the calm as you imagine a prudent partner and a settled provision, then carry that feeling into the next moment.
