Unmovable Presence: Psalm 16:8-9
Psalms 16:8-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The psalmist states that by setting the LORD before him and trusting in the divine presence at his right hand, he remains unmoved; his heart rejoices and his flesh rests in hopeful expectancy.
Neville's Inner Vision
As you read, know that the 'LORD' before you is not an external deity but the I AM that you are aware of. To set it before you is to fix your attention on your true nature, the constant presence that stands at your right hand, supporting every move. When you acknowledge this inner reality, you are not moved by appearances; the sense of security grows from within, and your heart becomes glad as your inner life affirms that you are forever held by that undeniable Presence. The line 'my flesh shall rest in hope' becomes your body's invitation to relaxation, for hope here is living expectancy grounded in consciousness rather than circumstance. Persist in the feeling that the divine reality is your immediate atmosphere, and your external world reflects that certainty—perseverance becomes ease, and endurance feels like rest in the truth that you are never apart from the I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, set the I AM before you as the constant presence and feel its right-hand support; hold that unmoved assurance for five minutes, revising any doubt into confident expectancy.
