Confession Awakens Inner Forgiveness
Psalms 32:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 32 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse records admitting one's sin to God and promising confession, followed by the assurance of forgiveness. It presents forgiveness as an inner shift in consciousness, not a distant verdict.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville Goddard, Psalms 32:5 maps the inner landscape of consciousness. Sin is not a distant trespass but a misalignment within your I AM—an erroneous belief about who you are. Acknowledging it unto the LORD means bringing that inner scene to the light of awareness and naming it there. The act of confession becomes a revision of self: you refuse to hide the error, speak it honestly to your true self, the I AM, and release its power by refusing to energize it. And then comes the assurance: thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Forgiveness, in this light, is not an external gift but an inner realization that your divine nature remains untouched and whole. When you dwell in that truth, the old belief dissolves and a fresh atmosphere of grace arises—clear, merciful, intimate. Selah invites you to pause, feel the conviction, and let the sense of forgiveness saturate your being. The practical effect is a new state of consciousness that redefines your experiences as aligned with divine intention.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume the state 'I AM forgiven' and feel it now. Sit quietly, place a hand on your heart, and repeat 'I AM forgiven' until the sense of renewal fills you.
