Inner Opening of Psalm 146
Psalms 146:7-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 146 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The psalm speaks of God acting for the oppressed by feeding the hungry, freeing prisoners, and opening the eyes of the blind; in Neville's reading, these acts are inner states you can claim.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the I AM within you, Psalm 146:7-8 becomes a map of your inner economy. The oppressed are not only others; they are the stubborn states of mind you label as lack, fear, and doubt. To 'execute judgment' for the oppressed is to enact discernment in your own consciousness: you choose what to nourish and what to release. The 'feeding of the hungry' translates to nourishing the faculties with faith, attention, and possibility. The 'loosing of prisoners' is the release from limiting beliefs you have kept yourself under. The 'open eyes of the blind' is the moment awareness clears and you see your world as you intend it to be. The 'raising of the bowed down' is the uplifting posture of your spirit—the confident, upright assumption that your state is changed. And the line 'the Lord loveth the righteous' reads as the natural affection of your own I AM toward a steady, righteous state, a harmony of justice and mercy. When you dwell in this inner law, your outward scene reforms to match your inner decree.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state of the I AM nourishing, liberating, and opening your sight; feel it real. Repeat softly: I am fed, I am free, I see clearly; I am justice in action.
