Inner Vision Against Greed

Proverbs 30:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 30 in context

Scripture Focus

14There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
Proverbs 30:14

Biblical Context

The verse paints a generation whose power uses swords and knives to swallow the vulnerable—the poor and the needy.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner-eye, the generation is not a crowd out there but a state of consciousness that believes in scarcity and predation. The swords in their teeth and knives in their jaws symbolize bold, aggressive thoughts—justified fear, calculation, and the urge to control the life of another. In Neville's terms, the ‘poor’ and the ‘needy’ are not distant victims but the positions of lack and dependence resident in your own mind. To change the image is to change the world; to revise the inner assumption is to revoke the power those thoughts have over you. See that God, the I AM within you, is not separate from the vulnerable but is the very awareness that makes them whole. When you insist that abundance is your natural state and that justice is already done in your inner economy, the external scene must reflect that inward harmony. Your imagination is the factory of reality; therefore, dwell in the feeling of universal provision and rights you claim for all, not by coercion, but by the rightness of your inner state.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and consciously presume the I AM as your only present reality; revise the belief 'there is not enough for all' to 'there is abundant provision for all.' Feel the wealth circulating through your life now, uplifting the needy as an inner blessing you already possess.
