Inner Psalm of Renewal

Psalms 51:10-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 51 in context

Scripture Focus

10Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Psalms 51:10-11

Biblical Context

The verses plead for a clean heart, a renewed right spirit, and to remain in God's presence, not losing the divine influence or Spirit.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the verse is a description of your inner state. 'Create in me' is not a plea to external power, but an act of you deciding what you will accept as your inner condition. A 'clean heart' and a 'right spirit' signal purity of purpose and alignment with the I AM that you are. If you dwell in the awareness of I AM, you are not cast from presence; you awaken to the presence within as your own being. The 'holy spirit' is the breath of divinity moving in you, never withdrawn, only believed as absent. Renewal comes as you revise any picture of yourself that is less than God-inspired. When you entertain the feeling that you are already the state you seek—clean, faithful, whole—the outer events reflect that inner posture. Thus, the verse teaches you to govern your inner life, and your experience of life follows your conviction that you are in God's presence now.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: In a quiet moment, assume you are already the state you seek—clean-hearted and present with God. Sit in the felt reality, and say, 'I am clean. I am renewed. I am in Thy presence,' letting that conviction saturate your consciousness for a few minutes.
