Neville Goddard on Psalms 6:4-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Psalms 6 in context

Scripture Focus

4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.

5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?

6I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.

Psalms 6:4-10

Neville's Inner Vision

I read this psalm as a map of inner weather. The 'Return, O LORD, deliver my soul' becomes a call to awaken to the I AM within, where mercy is a settled presence rather than a distant rescue. Suffering is simply a belief in separation; when I imagine the Presence hearing my cry, the sense of death dissolves into a steady, living awareness. The enemies are not people but stale habits of fear that shrink the heart; by returning to the inner sanctuary and claiming that the Lord has heard me, I revise the scene until the whispered promise 'the LORD will receive my prayer' becomes a felt certainty. The practice is immediate: assume the state of deliverance now, let mercy permeate every thought, and feel the release as if tears and pain are being washed away by a flood of inner grace. In this inner revision lies the vindication: not a future event, but a present alignment with the I AM that never leaves.
