Stand In The Inner Temple
Psalms 135:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 135 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It speaks to those who stand in the LORD's house, symbolizing dwelling in God's presence. It emphasizes remaining present in worship within the sacred space.
Neville's Inner Vision
To stand in the house of the LORD is not an external posture but a chosen state of awareness. The house and its courts become the inner temple of your own consciousness, where attention settles and true worship occurs. The verse asks you to occupy this space with certainty, to refrain from roaming thoughts and to let the Presence of God—the I AM you are—fill every corner. In Neville’s psychology, places are dispositions; standing denotes a persistent feeling of sufficiency, of being kept, of unity with the divine. When you dwell there, you are not petitioning from without but discovering that the kingdom is already within. The “courts” are your cultivated habits of reverence, your inner choir of alignment, your shared life with others who dwell in the same awareness. By realizing that the LORD’s house is your own mind, you align your emotions, beliefs, and senses with that Presence, and your life becomes an expression of holiness and community rather than separation. The act is not to seek God somewhere else, but to awaken to the God that stands in you.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume you are already standing in the LORD's house within your mind; feel the Presence as warm certainty and declare, I AM here. Then revise any sense of lack by resting in that inner court until fullness is felt.
