Heaven, Earth, and Your I AM

Psalms 115:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 115 in context

Scripture Focus

16The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
Psalms 115:16

Biblical Context

The verse states that God owns the heavens, while He has given the earth to people.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this psalm, the heavens symbolize the unchanging, divine consciousness—the I AM that is always. The earth represents the world of experience you consciously participate in and mold through inner states. God’s ownership of the heavens points to a fixed, universal awareness that underwrites all that exists. The earth being given to the children of men reveals that your external world arises from your inner condition. Neville-style, you do not beg creation to act; you awaken to the fact you already live within a living I AM. If you perceive lack or limitation, that is a signal of a suspended inner state rather than a failing external force. By embracing the belief that your earth is already yours because of your inner state, you align with the natural order of creation—the earth becomes a field for your intentional expression. The verse invites you to move from longing to confident assumption, knowing your consciousness designs the world you walk in and steward.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and for a few minutes assume the feeling: 'Heaven is mine within; earth is given to me by my I AM.' Then proceed through your day from this assured state.
