Wisdom By His Side
Proverbs 8:30-31 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Wisdom is depicted as God’s constant companion, delighting daily in creation and in the people of the earth.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of these lines as a map of your inner life. Wisdom is not a distant figure but your own I AM, standing by God as one raised in His presence. 'I was by Him' becomes the realization that you are consciousness in relationship, the living partner of Creation. To 'rejoice always before Him' is to hold a continuous state of gratitude and wonder in your own awareness, where every experience, every person, is a fresh expression of order and harmony established in the mind. The phrase 'the habitable part of his earth' becomes your inner field—the sensory world you ride in imagination—acknowledged as orderly, alive, and meaningful because you are attuned to Wisdom's delight. And 'my delights were with the sons of men' translates to your intention to mingle this joy with humanity, to see others as fellow expressions of your own inner light. The inner dialogue shifts from striving for outcomes to residing in the knowing that reality is formed by your state of consciousness; you become the delighted observer and creator of your world.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and declare, 'I am Wisdom, by God, daily His delight.' Then visualize yourself by His side, delighting in the habitable earth and feeling your joy extend to every person you meet, until it feels real.
