The Sea Within Fled Before I Am

Psalms 114:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 114 in context

Scripture Focus

3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
Psalms 114:3

Biblical Context

Fear is pictured as the sea; when confronted by the inner I AM, it flees. The Jordan’s boundary is driven back by that realized inner power.

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 114:3 is not about a historical sea and a river; it is a map of consciousness. The sea is fear, a restless energy within that appears to oppose us. The phrase 'it saw' means the mind perceives the presence of the I AM—awareness that you are, and that you are one with the Infinite. When that awareness is held as reality, the sea sees it and flees; the Jordan is driven back as your old conditions withdraw before the sovereignty of the Self. This is the salvation Psalms speaks of: not rescue from without but liberation inside; not a sudden change of weather, but a steadfast inner recognition that you are the authority of your life. True worship, then, is acknowledgment of the I AM, trust in its power, and living from that end-state day by day. The Providence you seek is the inner leading of consciousness that arises when you insist that you are that I AM and act from it. So imagine, feel, and dwell in the I AM, and watch the outer world align with that inner reality. The sea's retreat confirms the mind's alignment with the truth that fear is only a belief about separation. Your duty is to hold the vision until it has become your feeling-state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and affirm I AM; then visualize the sea seeing your inner I AM and fleeing, while Jordan reverses. Sustain that feeling until it becomes your normal sense of reality.
