The Chosen Inner Treasure
Psalms 135:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 135 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 135:4 says God has chosen Jacob unto Himself and Israel as a peculiar treasure. In Neville’s light, this points to the inner conviction that the I AM has chosen you and values your consciousness as precious.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Neville Goddard lens, the Lord’s choosing of Jacob unto Himself and Israel as a peculiar treasure is not about external lineage but the drama of your inner state. Jacob and Israel are two movements within you: Jacob—the restless ego and its striving; Israel—the awakened awareness that recognizes the I AM. 'Peculiar treasure' names your consciousness as a jewel held in the divine mind, a value placed on your singular being by God. To be chosen is to be held in intimate communion, to align your self-image with the truth of your oneness with the I AM. Providence and presence are not distant events but ongoing shifts in your inner atmosphere when you accept that you are already selected. When you dwell in that assumption, images, feelings, and circumstances rearrange to reflect the certainty of that inner state. The effort is not outward performance but inward alignment with the consciousness that already treasures you.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume 'I am chosen by the I AM,' and feel the sense of being God’s peculiar treasure. Let that self-image glow for a minute, then move through your day resting in the realized belief.
