Inner Plot, Pure Devotion

Psalms 36:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 36 in context

Scripture Focus

4He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
Psalms 36:4

Biblical Context

Psalm 36:4 presents a person who devises mischief on his bed and sets himself on a path that is not good. It notes that this one does not abhor evil.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Neville's lens, the 'he' is not a separate villain but your own inner state. The bed is the quiet chamber of thought where plans form; to devise mischief is to entertain a state of consciousness that leans toward harm. The verse exposes not a distant crime but the power of habitual inner thoughts to shape a life that seems not good. If you would reshape what you are imagining, you must revise the state you are occupying. Assume the feeling of a state in which you are guided by holiness, purity, and discernment rather than plotting or harboring evil. See yourself turning away from the path that is not good and embracing a steady obedience to your higher I AM. As you hold this belief, the outer world begins to reflect a new order—more integrity, wisdom, and clear boundaries. The key is to act as if this inner shift is already true, letting the imagination steady you until the old behavior dissolves into a natural habit of righteousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and revise by assuming the state of holiness; feel the inner conviction as if true now and let it radiate into your daily choices.
