Inner Waters, Inner Protection
Psalms 124:4-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 124 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verses describe being overwhelmed by waters and dangers, then blessing the LORD for protection from predators.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within these lines, the waters are not external floods but the ceaseless currents of fear and limitation arising in consciousness. You are not carried by life’s assaults; you are the I AM behind every sensation, the unshakable observer whose awareness remains untouched by storm. When the stream has gone over your soul, you have believed yourself apart from source. Yet the psalmist names the truth: the LORD—the indwelling I AM—has not surrendered you to the teeth of peril. This is the inner governance of your life: your state of consciousness determines the scene. Thus, when danger appears, refuse identification with it; silently affirm, 'I am held by the I AM; I am safe, I am intact, I am loved.' The waters may rise to test your faith, but they cannot prevail against the conviction of your wholeness granted by grace, providence, and divine mercy. By choosing this inner alignment, you shift the outer conditions, and gratitude arises as the soul recognizes its deliverance as already accomplished in consciousness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, and revise the scene by declaring, 'I am the I AM; no wave can overwhelm me.' Then breathe into the sense of safety for a minute, letting the feeling of being protected fill your body.
