Hearing in Distress: Inner Hearing

Psalms 120:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 120 in context

Scripture Focus

1In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.
Psalms 120:1

Biblical Context

In distress, the psalmist calls to the LORD; the verse affirms that the cry is heard.

Neville's Inner Vision

Distress, in this reading, is a signal from your inner state asking to align with the I AM. When you cry unto the LORD, you are not bargaining with an external deity but turning your attention to the one power you know as awareness itself. The word 'heard' then becomes a conscious acknowledgment: your own consciousness recognizes the call and responds with image, feeling, and renewed certainty. Neville teaches that delivery is not something you chase down apart from yourself; it is something you revise into your current state. So adopt the assumption that you are already heard and seen—imaged into a present, solved condition by the imagination you live in. As you dwell in that assumed state, the outer world begins to reflect this inner harmony: guidance appears as quiet impulses, mercy as a restoration of balance, and providence as a natural cause-and-effect flowing through your day. The distress thus transforms into a doorway, inviting you to exercise the creative power of consciousness rather than pleading for rescue from without.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, rest in the I AM, and affirm, 'I am heard now.' Feel the relief settle in your chest as if the deliverance you sought is already accomplished, and dwell there for several minutes.
