Psalms 22:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse portrays others laughing and shaking their heads in scorn at the speaker. It captures the pressure of public derision and isolation.
Neville's Inner Vision
Psalm 22:7 places the speaker under the scorn of many who laugh and shake their heads. In the Neville sense, the throng is not a distant crowd but the clamor of fears and judgments that arise within your own mind. When you realize you are the I AM, awareness itself, those voices lose their claim, for you are not the body of opinion but the inner pioneer of truth. The mockery then becomes a message: you are being invited to return your attention to your divine state. By choosing to replace the scene with the feeling of being beloved and untouched by outer words, you align with the reality that imagination creates. Persist in that inner conviction, and the outer appearance begins to shift; the lips and heads that mocked fade into the background, and you move through life with a steady, gentle power that does not argue but acknowledges. Trust is born in such revision: you are the I AM, and the world reflects your inner scene.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and revise the scene by declaring, 'I am the I AM; no crowd can shake my inner peace.' Feel the assurance that you are chosen and loved, and let the mocking dissolve into quiet acceptance as your awareness holds steady.
