Neville's Inner Vision

Viewing Psalm 111:2-9 through Neville Goddard's lens, the works of the LORD become the movements of your inner consciousness. The LORD is the I AM within, and His works are great because they reveal what your imagination can accomplish when aligned with divine law. When the psalm says His work is honorable and glorious, you are invited to honor the inner acts of awareness that shape your life. His compassion and mercy become the felt sense of grace you dwell in when you refuse to run your mind on lack. The line about giving meat to them that fear Him translates to nourishment supplied by fearless trust in the covenant of being; you provision yourself from within by the stability of inner trust. To show His people the power of His works means you witness your own thoughts acting with power to form realities, revealing a heritage of abundance rather than scarcity. The insistence that the works of His hands are truth and judgment points to the unchanging law that your inner commands are fulfilled. Redemption is the remembrance of freedom already present in I AM, a holy trust in God inside you.

Practice This Now

In a quiet moment, assume the state that the psalm describes—that the LORD's works are your inner movements and covenant life. Feel the sense of nourishment, mercy, and redemption as real now, and silently affirm, I am consciousness through which these works are performed.
