Psalms 34:12-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 34 in context

Scripture Focus

12What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
13Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
Psalms 34:12-14

Biblical Context

Psalms 34:12-14 invites those who desire life and good to guard their speech, turn away from evil, do good, and pursue inner peace.

Neville's Inner Vision

Look again at these lines as a script for the state you presently occupy. The question 'What man is he that desireth life…' is not about a man apart from you; it is the state your consciousness inhabits. To 'keep thy tongue from evil' is to train your inner speech, to release guile and venom from the story you tell yourself. 'Depart from evil, and do good' becomes your revision: turn away from thoughts that harm, and imagine acts of kindness and integrity. 'Seek peace, and pursue it' invites a steady inner posture—a calm, confident awareness that the I AM already sustains life. Your world will reflect the temper of your inner state; as you assume peace and live in love, the days you desire—life, longevity, good—begin to unfold as real experience. The psalmist's call is a gentle invitation to dwell in the inner sanctuary of awareness, where life is spoken into being by your precise, loving attention, grounded in I AM.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the life I desire; I dwell in peace now.' Hold that feeling until it seems real, then let your inner speech align with that reality.
