Inner King, Maternal Wisdom
Proverbs 31:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 31 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Proverbs 31:1-2 presents Lemuel’s words and a mother’s prophecy as an inner dialogue about identity, guidance, and fidelity to vows. The passage invites turning to inner wisdom as the source of rightful leadership over the mind.
Neville's Inner Vision
These lines are not a geographic report but a revelation of your inner theatre. Lemuel’s kingly voice is the governing I AM in you; the mother’s words are the prophetic discipline that tunes that ruler to truth. In this moment, the mother’s prophecy is the wisdom of your higher self speaking as care, order, and fidelity. The questions—"What, my son? ... what, the son of my vows?"—are the soul’s inquiry into who you are becoming and what you have pledged to inhabit. The answer is to return to the state in which the vow is already kept: imagine and feel that you dwell in the fulfilled self, that your desires are now established, that your life reflects the oath you hold. By choosing that state and living from it, you release the old image of lack and awaken to the promised life. The inner dialogue becomes actual experience as you persist in the feeling that you are, right now, the vowed, wise ruler of your consciousness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and hear the inner mother guiding your inner king; assume the vowed self and feel it real now by repeating I am the vow fulfilled, I dwell in wisdom.
