Inner Confession, Divine Refuge

Psalms 32:5-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 32 in context

Scripture Focus

5I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
6For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.
7Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.
Psalms 32:5-7

Biblical Context

Psalm 32:5-7 presents confession and forgiveness as a path to protection: the godly pray when God may be found, and God becomes a hiding place delivering from trouble.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your confession is not mere admission but a redefining of your inner state. In the I AM you, you acknowledge deeds you once hid, and in that acknowledgment the sense of guilt dissolves into forgiveness, because forgiveness is the recognition that the self has been always aligned with its own divine nature. When you say I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD, you are naming a shift of consciousness, not a petition to an external judge. The godly prayer is a timing in consciousness: a moment when your awareness may be found—a revolving door of attention that re-centers you in the truth that you are never away from the divine. The floods of great waters cannot overwhelm the one who dwells in the hidden place of the most High. You become the hiding place for yourself, an interior refuge where trouble can be breathed through and dissolved, and you are surrounded by songs of deliverance. This is not escape but the reversal of perception: deliverance first as inner feeling, then as outward experience.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and in the first person declare I acknowledge my sin unto Thee; I am forgiven; I am hidden in the I AM; I am surrounded by songs of deliverance. Then rest in that feeling until relief floods your awareness.
