Nourishing Rain, Inner Justice
Proverbs 28:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 28 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse warns against the oppression of the poor; such mistreatment drains nourishment and sustenance from the community. The sweeping rain imagery emphasizes how cruelty deprives all of food and life.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the 'poor' are not merely the financially poor but the neglected, vulnerable parts of your consciousness that crave care. To 'oppress the poor' is to maintain a harsh mood or policy toward lack, doubt, or need, projecting a storm that strips away inner food—the vitality, nourishment, and hope of life. In the I AM you are the rainmaker; dwelling in lack and judgment becomes the heavy rain that leaves the field barren. By turning your attention to the same I AM and choosing to bless all with the assumption that abundance is your natural state, you reverse the weather. The verse invites you to realize you are not separate from others but the one consciousness that can feed all through your thoughts, feelings, and choices. Your revision is not escaping reality but rearranging the inner atmosphere until outer conditions reflect confidence and care. Decide to honor the 'poor' within and without; when you treat them rightly in mind, you invite nourishment back into your life and into the world around you.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise a scene where the oppressed are fed and your inner weather becomes nourishing. Feel the I AM widening life so abundance flows to all.
