When God Arises Within

Psalms 12:4-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 12 in context

Scripture Focus

4Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
5For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
Psalms 12:4-5

Biblical Context

The psalm contrasts boastful voices that think they can prevail by words with a divine promise to rise and shield the vulnerable.

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the text is not a history of nations but a map of your inner life. The tongue that proclaims prevail by speech is the habit of the ego—the belief that power resides outside or in force of words. The question who is lord over us exposes a mind that has let a distant authority govern its experience. Yet the Lord arising is the renewal of awareness itself: the I AM within begins to rule thoughts and feelings, dissolving fear, lack, and domination by outside forces. When you identify with this inner Lord, the oppressed state loses its grip, for safety is not given by others but secured by your awareness. The promise to set the needy in safety becomes the inner transformation that aligns your life with the truth of your own divine sovereignty. In practice, you imagine the I AM standing as your protector, and the world rearranges to reflect that new inner truth.

Practice This Now

Assume the Lord within has arisen now. Revise the inner refrain 'Who is lord over us?' to 'The I AM is my Lord,' and feel the safety awaken in your chest.
