Rise Upright Within Psalms 20:8

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 20:8 declares that some are brought down and fallen, but we are risen and stand upright. In Neville’s inward reading, the 'they' are the old modes of thought and external conditions that pretend to govern you; the truth is you are the I AM, and you reverse any scene by an inner assumption. The fallen condition dissolves the moment you refuse to identify with it and instead identify with the risen state already present in your awareness. When you assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled and continually dwell there, you rehearse a new inner certainty that reorders your life from the inside out. The upright standing is a symbol of inner steadiness—confidence, clarity, and justice flowing from your inner conviction. Persist in this inner posture and the outer world will rearrange itself to reflect it: fortunes reverse, opportunities appear, and the sense of stability you seek becomes your lived experience. The shift comes not by changing others, but by changing the state you inhabit.
