Inner Instruction Elevates Wisdom
Proverbs 9:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
To a wise man, instruction deepens wisdom. To a just man, teaching increases learning.
Neville's Inner Vision
See the verse as a map of your inner conditions. The instruction given to a wise man is the refining of a state of awareness; the instruction given to a just man is the awakening of his capacity to learn. In Neville's language, the teacher lives inside you as the I AM. When you deliberately assume a state of receptivity—feeling that you are now being taught—you invite the inner motion that makes you wiser. The more faithfully you hold that state, the more your inner seeing grows; the wise become wiser, the just become more teachable, and learning unfurls as a natural expression of your consciousness. Do not chase knowledge externally; revise your sense of self to align with the truth you imagine, and watch events reflect the inner shift.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine the inner teacher speaking directly to your present question. Then revise your state by affirming, I am instructed now; I am becoming wiser.
