The Inner Path of the Upright
Proverbs 2:20-22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Biblical Context
Proverbs 2:20–22 shows that choosing the way of the good and keeping to the paths of righteousness leads to dwelling in a stable land; the wicked are cut off and the transgressors rooted out.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the I AM, this verse is a map of your inner state. The 'way of good men' is the discipline of thoughts that align with your higher self; the 'paths of the righteous' are habitual choices honoring integrity and discernment. The 'upright' and the 'perfect' refer not to outward labels but to conditions of consciousness in which you live; when you persist in the feeling that you are the I AM, you inhabit the 'land' as your inner kingdom. The 'wicked' and the 'transgressors' are remnants of fear and doubt uprooted as you consistently claim your true nature. As you hold to this inner order, your outer world follows by the natural law of consciousness: the world is your imagination in action. The verse invites you to revise your self-conception until the outer life reflects harmony and wholeness. Remember: you are not at the mercy of circumstance; you are the sovereign I AM whose thought creates reality.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine walking the path of good men, feeling the land of the upright now. Repeat, I AM the upright life, and dwell there until it feels real.
