Proverbs 2:3-4

Biblical Context

Proverbs 2:3-4 invites you to cry out for knowledge, lift your inner voice for understanding, and seek wisdom as if it were priceless treasure.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your cry after knowledge is not outward noise; it is the soul's insistence that you are more than your present image. When you lift your voice for understanding, you are commanding the attention of the I AM within, the awareness that can fix the form of your thought until it matches the truth you desire. To seek her as silver and search for her as hid treasures is to prize wisdom above every appearance and persist until inner insight arrives. In this light, God becomes the I AM you are, not a distant far-off power, but the living awareness able to illuminate your mind. Practice by imagining you already possess the knowledge you seek and by feeling the thrill of understanding; with each imagined insight, your inner state shifts until it reflects the reality you intend. The inner movements align with your desire, and discernment, direction, and right action unfold in daily life as you dwell in that learned state.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, choose a specific question, and assume the answer is already yours. Feel the certainty in your chest and move through the day with that imagined knowing as your real state.
