Enemies Healed by Kindness

Proverbs 25:21-22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 25 in context

Scripture Focus

21If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
22For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.
Proverbs 25:21-22

Biblical Context

Proverbs 25:21-22 instructs feeding your enemy when they are hungry or thirsty. By acting with mercy, you elevate your own state and invite divine reward.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your enemy exists as a mirror in your consciousness. When you feed him bread or water, you are not performing kindness toward another, but re-siting your own psyche into wholeness. You assume a state where scarcity and hostility cannot touch you, and you act from the I AM that supplies all need. The act is a practical revision: you are changing the pattern by which you have imagined separation. The coals of fire upon his head symbolize not punishment but the illumination you cast upon the image of him within your mind. As you refuse to withhold aid, you end the famine in your own inner kingdom, and the reward you seek—peace, abundance, reconciliation—arrives as a natural consequence of your state of consciousness. The external enemy then becomes a signal that your inner transformation is real, not merely a gesture. So, you do not bribe God; you align yourself with your own divine law, and the LORD rewards your changed consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine the enemy as a hungry traveler before you. See you offering bread and water, feel the warmth of generosity in your chest, and dwell in the sensation of 'I AM' supplying abundance.
