Inner Statutes of the Heart

Psalms 19:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 19 in context

Scripture Focus

8The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
Psalms 19:8

Biblical Context

The LORD's statutes are right and pure, bringing joy to the heart and clarity to the eyes. This asserts that inner law—aligned with divine principle—produces enlightened perception.

Neville's Inner Vision

Mind the Psalm's line: the statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. In this hermeneutic, the LORD is not a distant deity but the I AM at the center of your consciousness—the governing law by which you think, feel, and imagine. When you treat the rightness of these statutes as your living standard, you awaken to a joy that shifts your inner weather. The 'heart' that rejoices is the sensing I AM, thrilled by harmony, clarity, and integrity. The 'eyes' that are enlightened are the inner sight sharpened by pure attention—free from the confusion of fear and mixed motives. Thus, the outer world aligns with your inner decree as you hold this revision: that your life follows a pure, right path because your inner law is awakened. This is not fear or effort; it is a re-affirmation of your true nature, a return to the original vision where imagination paints reality in accordance with inner statutes.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume: 'I align with the right and pure inner statutes of the LORD; my heart rejoices, and my sight is clear.' Dwell in that feeling until it feels real.
