Inner Riches Through Humility

Neville's Inner Vision

In Proverbs 22:4 the text invites a shift from seeking external wealth to discovering an inner treasury. When humility and the fear of the LORD become your prevailing states of consciousness, riches, honour, and life are not distant rewards but the very atmosphere you inhabit. In Neville's view the LORD is your I AM, the constant awareness that you are, and your attitude toward that awareness creates your results. Humility is the relinquishing of stubborn self-will and an open recognition of the sufficiency of the Source. Reverence toward the LORD is reverence toward the life unfolding within you, a trust that your imagination is the instrument by which reality is felt and formed. The verse means that the moment you dwell in this inner disposition, wealth ceases to be measured by coins and becomes an inner confidence, honor becomes a felt-status of nobility in consciousness, and life becomes the vivifying energy of your days. The mechanism is clear: revise any contrary belief, assume the state you desire, and let the feeling of that state reign as your present fact.
