Guarding Your Inner Circle

Proverbs 22:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 22 in context

Scripture Focus

24Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:
Proverbs 22:24

Biblical Context

The verse warns you not to form close ties with those ruled by anger; it invites discernment in choosing whom you allow into your life.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine that the angry man is a state of consciousness you meet, not a person to conquer. The verse asks you to preserve the quiet of your own I AM by not courting the energy that makes others furious. When you sense the pull to befriend or align with someone vibrating with anger, you are being tested in your inner boundary. The work is to acknowledge the mood without surrendering to it; to treat it as a signal from your own consciousness about what you are entertaining within. By refusing to go, you are not merely avoiding a social trouble; you are declaring your reality. The I AM remains unmoved while you revise your associations inwardly, believing you have already separated in imagination from that anger. Do not go means: dwell in your peaceful state, envision your circle filled with discernment and harmony, and let that inner atmosphere redraw your outward contacts. Over time, your external world follows your inner alignment, and what you tolerate in your mind becomes the company you live with.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, repeat, 'I am calm; I choose not to go with anger.' Visualize stepping away from a heated scene, your inner circle radiant with peaceful, discerning presence.
