Inner Walls Rebuilt
Proverbs 24:31 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 24 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Two images: a place overgrown with thorns and nettles, and a broken stone wall. This depicts neglect that allows decay and loss of wholeness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your world in the verse is not a ruin somewhere out there but a state of consciousness. When the mind forgets its inner garden, the psyche yields to thorns—the encroaching habits, excuses, and persistent limitations that cover the face of your being. The broken wall is the breach in your sense of wholeness; the nettles and thorns signify neglected feelings, unaddressed assumptions, and the erosion of vitality. In the Neville Goddard tradition, God is the I AM—the conscious attention you expend. To interpret Proverbs 24:31, see that the wall's collapse announces a call to revision. The moment you cease tending to belief and image, you allow decay; the walls you once trusted dissolve into the background of awareness. But you can reverse it by assuming a different state: that the wall is rebuilt, the garden cleared, and life flows with renewed energy. This is not reliance on outer circumstances but inner shift: imagine the walls back, feel their solidity, and inhabit the renewed sense of wholeness as if it were your present fact.
Practice This Now
Assume the wall is rebuilt now and feel its solid presence in your chest or solar plexus. Then revise until you know the garden is clear and life flows.
