Mercy-Rooted Inner Trust
Psalms 52:7-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 52 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 52:7-8 contrasts the man who trusts in riches with the speaker who dwells in God’s mercy; true security is found in inner trust, not external wealth.
Neville's Inner Vision
All it takes is a turn of attention. The man who made riches his strength unwittingly screens himself from the I AM within; he fashions security from coins and contracts, while the Psalmist declares a different power. You are not defined by the abundance of things but by your inner state. When you align with the I AM, you become like a green olive tree planted in the house of God, vibrant and enduring through every season. The olive tree does not chase after harvests; it relies on the mercy that nourishes roots, sap, and fruit. So, discern that your strength is not in fragility of wealth but in the eternal mercy that holds your consciousness. In this inner vision, wealth becomes a symbol—not a condition—but you, the aware self, dwell in safety, steadiness, and fruitfulness. The shift is practical: adopt the feeling that you are already rooted in divine mercy, and let that consciousness extend to every moment. What you trust in grows in you; the outer world rearranges to reflect your inner state.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and inwardly declare, 'I am the green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever,' then feel your roots drawing nourishment from the unseen source of life.
