Always Before Me Unmoved
Psalms 16:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 16:8 teaches keeping the divine presence before every thought so you remain steady; with God at your right hand, you shall not be moved.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, the line is a statement about consciousness. 'I have set the LORD always before me' becomes the discipline of keeping the divine idea at the foreground of awareness, the governing hypothesis by which all inner traffic is measured. The 'LORD' is not a distant person but the I AM, the surrounding awareness that steadies every mood. When you recognize that 'he is at my right hand,' you feel a near, favorable support—an inner assurance that you are under the favor of your own awakened consciousness. This is not a claim about external luck but a state of mind in which every sensation, impulse, and fear is checked by the reality of the Presence that you consistently affirm. In practice, you revise unsettled feeling by returning to the assumed truth: God is here, now, and governing my thoughts. In that act, the impression of change arises from within, and you become unmoved by appearances, because you have anchored your identity in the I AM.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and repeat, 'I have set the LORD before me; the Lord is at my right hand; I am not moved.' Feel this truth as a living sensation at the center of your chest until it becomes your immediate experience.
