Psalm 52:9 - Praise, Patience, and the Inner Name Within
Psalms 52:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 52 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It speaks of praising God forever because the work has already been done. It also speaks of waiting on the Name, trusting that it is good before the saints within your consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Each line invites you to recognize that the psalmist's declared 'done' work is a state of consciousness you can enter now. Praise is not a history, but a present alignment with the I AM—the awareness that has completed the thing you seek. When you say, 'I will praise thee forever,' you are choosing to dwell in the feeling that your desire is already accomplished. 'I will wait on thy Name' becomes a practice of standing in the Name, the I AM, and letting that identity govern your experience. To wait on the Name is to accept that its goodness is already approved by your inner saints—your trusted thoughts and feelings. Thus the verse is a simple technique: assume the finished state, feel the reality of it now, and let the world reflect that inner certainty. In this light, the Psalm teaches faith as inner alignment and patience as calm assurance, not as mere petition.
Practice This Now
Assume the completed state now: declare, 'I AM that I AM, the work is done.' Then vividly imagine a scene where your desire is already satisfied, feel that gratitude, and gently release the image, carrying the certainty into daily life.
