Read Psalms 10 in context

Scripture Focus

2The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

3For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.

4The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

Psalms 10:2-4

Biblical Context

The Psalm describes the wicked in proud posture who persecute the poor and boast of desire, refusing to seek God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Where the psalmist names the wicked in pride, you are shown the inner posture the I AM would dissolve. The 'poor' you persecute are your quiet, vulnerable parts asking to be led by God. The devices imagined by the wicked mind are those plans of possession, control, and self-importance that keep you from the Presence. When you dwell in pride, you refuse to seek God; you set God outside your thoughts. But God is your awareness, the I AM that is always now. To reinterpret is to switch your inner state: imagine yourself in possession of true abundance and righteousness, not by grasping but by letting the life of God move through you. See that the boast of desire and the covetous heart are nothing real except as you think them; the moment you align with the I AM, you bless your life with right order and the poor within you is cared for by divine provision. Practice the felt shift: assume the state of God-consciousness here and now, and feel the world reorganize to reflect that inner truth.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling of I AM as your immediate consciousness. Repeat gently the conviction: God is in my thoughts; I am guided by divine order.
