Crooked Paths, Straight Mind
Proverbs 2:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Proverbs 2:15 identifies those whose conduct is crooked and perverse, signaling that inner disposition shapes the outward path.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider that the 'crooked ways' are not other people’s roads but your own states of consciousness when unmoved by awareness. The froward path is a mind that refuses alignment with the I AM, a habit of assuming limitation and judging evidence before it appears. Proverbs does not accuse the world; it awakens you to the fact that you walk a maze of imagined outcomes because you have forgotten your sovereignty as awareness. When you identify with the I AM, you interrupt the spiral of turns and dead ends. The inner law works: you imagine the path you prefer and precede it with the feeling of its reality. Your steps become straight because your inner picture has become clear and held in faith. The verse invites you to revise, not condone, the habit of crooked thinking; to accept a new alignment where truth, unity, and possibility are the sturdy ground you travel on.
Practice This Now
Assume the straight, faithful path now: picture yourself walking with I AM as your guide, feel the ground firm beneath you, and revise any sense of crookedness by declaring, 'I am straight, I am whole, I am now.'
