Glory Within The Wise
Proverbs 3:35 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Proverbs 3:35 contrasts inner wisdom with foolish pride. The wise are said to inherit glory, while fools invite shame.
Neville's Inner Vision
Proverbs 3:35 speaks not of outward ranks but of your inner state. The wise inherit glory because their consciousness is crowned with awareness, order, and dignity. The fools promote themselves to shame because their self-concept is bound to lack, fear, and separation from the I AM. In Neville's terms, you must know God as the I AM inside you and use imagination as your instrument to shape circumstance. When you assume the feeling of the wise self—seeing yourself as whole, capable, and rightly related to life—you awaken the inner movement that pulls outward events into line with that state. Glory is not a prize handed down from without; it is the natural result of a consciousness that refuses to identify with limitation. The moment you claim 'I am the glory' and dwell in that truth, forgiveness, confidence, and discernment become your daily evidence. Fear of shame dissolves as you revise your self-image into the royal ruler of your inner realm.
Practice This Now
Assume the wise inner self now and revise all self-talk that labels you as fool. Feel it real by picturing a quiet moment where you are crowned with glory, and let that sensation rule your actions.
