Mercy Lending to God

Proverbs 19:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 19 in context

Scripture Focus

17He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
Proverbs 19:17

Biblical Context

Proverbs 19:17 teaches that showing pity to the poor is like lending to the LORD, and what is given will be repaid.

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 19:17 invites you to see compassion as a banknote deposited in the I AM. When you pity the poor, you are not giving to someone outside your circle; you are sowing a loan into your own divine consciousness. The act becomes a movement within your inner state—a credit to the awareness that you truly are: the I AM, the lender and the life you are living. In Neville's terms, the poor are not separate beings but your moment of lack seeking expression. Your kindness registers as an investment in the consciousness that sustains you. Mercy thus is not charity from afar but a conscious transaction with Providence, a quiet certainty that abundance follows the heart that gives. The repayment you receive is felt as inner shifts: a deeper sense of wholeness, new opportunities, or the grace that aligns with your renewed conviction that God supports you. So mercy is an inner economy turning your state of consciousness toward abundance.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and treat pity as a loan to the I AM; deposit compassion into your inner bank and feel the I AM return the capital as grace in your life.
