Inward Triumph Over Mockery

Psalms 35:15-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 35 in context

Scripture Focus

15But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
16With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
Psalms 35:15-16

Biblical Context

The psalmist describes enemies rejoicing in his adversity, gathering against him and mocking him without end.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the scene is never about others; it is an invitation to shift your inner state. The enemies, gathering and gnashing, are projections of fear, doubt, and the impulse to prove yourself. When the psalmist says he knew not they gathered, he points to a universal law: outer events follow the consciousness you are wearing. Your so-called adversaries appear as a chorus, yet they live only in the theatre of your mind. The moment you accept that you are the I AM—the awareness behind all forms—the crowd loses its power to disturb. The adversity is not a punishment but a signal to revise your inner state. Do not chase relief in the world outside; claim the reality that your state of consciousness is the source of every outward scene. If you rest in the conviction ‘I am the I AM,’ mockery dissolves and tearing thoughts fall away, becoming quiet reflections. The body of fear tightens into a steady, compassionate strength: you govern the inner kingdom, and the outer drama yields to your sovereignty.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and revise the scene: the 'enemies' dissolve into inner states you have mastered. Then affirm, 'I am the I AM, unshaken by outer appearances,' and feel it real.
