Neville Goddard on Psalms 22:15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Psalms 22 in context

Scripture Focus

15My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

Psalms 22:15

Biblical Context

The verse describes feeling drained and unable to speak, as if life has dried to dust. It points to inner states shaping outward experience.

Neville's Inner Vision

I hear the cry as the voice of a man who has forgotten he is the I AM. Strength dries when I identify with limitation, like a potsherd left in the sun. The tongue cleaves to my jaws when imagination is closed to possibility; I am mute because I have not moved my awareness back to its source. And the dust of death is only the shifting of thought away from life, a belief that I am separated from my Creator. But God is the I AM within, ever awake, my own center of vitality. When I revise, I do not change the world; I change the state of consciousness from which I act. I affirm, right now, that the life of God flows through me, that strength is not depleted but redirected as energy in forms I have yet to manifest. In this moment, I feel the breath of life filling lungs, skin warming, steps returning, and voice regaining its rightful freedom. The dry day becomes a victory of consciousness—an awakening to the truth that I am always alive in God.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare: I AM the life in me now; feel vitality flow through limbs and renew speech. Assume you are the living I AM and feel it-real until the body and voice reflect that truth.
