Honor Inner Authority Within

Proverbs 19:26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 19 in context

Scripture Focus

26He that wasteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach.
Proverbs 19:26

Biblical Context

The verse warns that wasting one's father and driving away one's mother brings shame and reproach; Neville would translate this as dishonoring the inner authorities of consciousness that govern your life.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this line, the Father and the Mother symbolize fixed states of consciousness within you—the I AM and its nurturing energy. Wasting the Father is refusing the discipline and order that gives form to your days; chasing away the Mother is turning from inner nourishment, intuition, and tenderness that seed your desires. When you persist in such disregard, your outer world mirrors the rebellion with shame in relationships, work, and health, for you have, in effect, denied your own inner authority. The I AM is not a distant judge but the awareness you live by; whenever you acknowledge these inner parents and feel their steady presence, life rearranges itself to honor that image. Your thoughts, feelings, and scenes become coherent with that order, and what was once shame becomes quiet alignment. Practice is simple: assume that your inner authorities are present now, feel their guidance, and let your life reflect the felt truth that you are already whole, guided, and dignified by the I AM within.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and repeat, 'I am the I AM within, honoring my inner Father and Mother. See yourself already living with their guidance, and feel the shift as events fall into place.'
