Inner Portion and Inheritance

Psalms 16:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 16 in context

Scripture Focus

5The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
Psalms 16:5-6

Biblical Context

Plainly, the psalm declares that God is your portion and guide. Your life is set within lines that fall in pleasant places, yielding a goodly heritage.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's voice, we reinterpret: The 'LORD' is not a distant deity but your own I AM, the living consciousness that holds your inheritance. Your cup and lot represent your ongoing inner state, the conditions your attention creates. When you identify as the one who is always maintained and guided by an eternal resource, your outer world conforms to the images you hold. The lines falling in pleasant places signify the alignment of your inner impression with surrounding circumstances. You are not subject to chance; you are the writer of your life through imagination. By assuming the truth of 'God is my portion' and feeling the reality of that state, you revise your past and inaugurate a future that reflects your inner certainty. Trust that Providence preserves and brings forth a goodly heritage as you dwell in awareness rather than in lack.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes; rest in the conviction 'The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance.' Imagine your life arranged in pleasant places; feel the inherent security of a goodly heritage as if it were your present experience.
