Psalms 138:2-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 138 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The psalmist declares wholehearted worship toward God, praising mercy and truth, and trusting that God’s word stands above all names. In times of trouble, God answers and strengthens the soul, and mercy endures forever.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this psalm, I hear a call to turn every inner state into an altar. Worship toward the temple is not a distant ritual but a turning of your consciousness to the I AM, the living word inside you. The line that God has magnified thy word above all thy name teaches that your inner decree—the word you utter in the quiet of your mind—has greater power than any external title. When you cry within and refuse to accept limitation, the answer comes as an inner strengthening, a surge of life in the soul that proves your point of view is real. The kings of the earth praise when they hear the mouth of your inner law, because the outer world is only the echo of the inner state. Humility does not mean weakness but alignment with the higher self; the proud are distant because they are not in accord with the lowly, nameless God within. In trouble, you are revived by your own lifted awareness; your right hand saves you as you stand in the certainty that the Lord will perfect that which concerns you. Your mercy endures when you refuse to abandon the works of your own hands—your inner creation, born of consciousness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume the feeling: I am worshiping toward my inner sanctuary; my word is magnified above all names. Feel your soul revived and steady, knowing the outer world must reflect this inner decree.
