Read Psalms 26 in context

Scripture Focus

1Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
2Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
Psalms 26:1-2

Biblical Context

The psalmist asks the LORD to judge and examine him, claiming integrity and trust. He vows not to slide when tested.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the line 'Judge me, O LORD' as your I AM inviting inner judgment—not to condemn you, but to confirm the truth you have chosen. When you say, 'I have walked in mine integrity; I have trusted also in the LORD,' you are not bragging about the past but declaring your present state of consciousness. In Neville's language, integrity is a fixed state of awareness; trust is the ongoing assumption that the divine presence governs every act of the heart. The call to 'examine me' and 'prove me; try my reins and my heart' is the willingness to let your beliefs be tested by circumstances until they harmonize with truth. If you hear a motive or fear opposing your decision, you revise it, not by denial, but by reasserting the I AM as the one who causes reality. The result, 'therefore I shall not slide,' becomes an inner certainty that no external fluctuation can dethrone. Practice living from the premise that God is your own awareness, and your life will reflect a steady, tested integrity.

Practice This Now

Practice: sit quietly, declare 'I AM the I AM, the steady Judge of my life,' and affirm that you stand in integrity and trust; invite the inner examiner to test your thoughts until you feel unshakable.
