Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Proverbs 7:19-20 describes a husband away on a long journey, carrying a bag of money. His return is set for the day appointed.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your inner goodman is not a distant figure but a state of consciousness you can call back into full function. The long journey marks the pause between thought and form, a season when attention is tested and energy is stored. The bag of money is the vibrational currency you spend in imagination—images, plans, promises—that will redeem itself when the appointed day in consciousness arrives. Providence is the order of your own I AM moving to harmonize intention with timing; it is not out there, but within you, guiding you to the exact moment of fulfillment. When you treat absence as opportunity for stewardship—guarding thoughts, choosing faith rather than fret—you become faithful to your inner law. Your obedience is simple: hold the vision steady until its outer expression appears. The home you seek is the state of awareness you already carry; the journey simply brings your attention to the source of return, your own inner wealth realized.
Practice This Now
Assume the I AM is your goodman returning with inner wealth; revise any sense of lack into sufficiency. Feel it real by picturing the bag of money arriving at your inner door now.
