Neville Goddard on Psalms 144:12-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Psalms 144 in context

Scripture Focus

12That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:

13That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:

14That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.

15Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.

Psalms 144:12-15

Biblical Context

Psalm 144:12-15 speaks of families thriving, abundance in crops and livestock, secure households, and peace—happiness for a people whose God is the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider that the sons and daughters described are not merely offspring but states of consciousness manifesting as a flourishing life. Sons as 'plants grown up in their youth' symbolize a mind that has grown into steadfast maturity; daughters as 'corner stones, polished' are the foundations of beauty and order, reflecting an inner palace of coherence. The garners full and the sheep multiplying in the streets reveal a mind nourished by guaranteed supply—an inner abundance that finds expression as outward provision. Oxen strong to labor and no breaking in or complaining in the streets point to the disciplined, unresisting energy of a soul at ease within its own state. The closing line—'Happy is that people, whose God is the LORD'—is not a territorial claim but a recognition: the I AM within, the LORD, is present as awareness that makes this reality possible. Prosperity is a condition of consciousness, a settled feeling that there is no lack, only a generous, orderly expression of being. When you dwell in that awareness, your world rearranges to match it.
