Inner Candle of the LORD Within

Proverbs 20:27 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 20 in context

Scripture Focus

27The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
Proverbs 20:27

Biblical Context

The verse names the human spirit as a candle lit by the LORD, revealing the hidden depths within. It speaks of inward search and awareness, not outward circumstance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the I AM lights a candle that never wavers. The 'spirit of man' is not a distant force but your own awakened consciousness, the lamp by which you inspect every corner of your inner belly—the realm of beliefs, memories, and feelings. When you attend with quiet trust to the light you are, you begin to notice how images and sensations rise and pass; the candle exposes thoughts you have taken for reality, not to condemn but to redeem. The divine candle does not condemn but clarifies, revealing where you have assumed limitation and where faith has been neglected. To work with this is to recognize that God is not distant; God is awareness, I AM in you, and you are the lamp. By the act of imagining you are already what you seek, you feed the flame, and the inner landscape rearranges to match the inner state. Your task is not to chase outcomes but to keep the candle steady on the truth of your I AM.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and assume the I AM is lighting your inner belly with the truth of your goal. Revise a single limiting belief by affirming it as already true and feeling that actuality in your chest.
