Hearing the Inner Petition

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 6:8–10 is not about distant armies but about the mind you entertain. The 'LORD' is the I AM within you, the living awareness that hears the voice of your weeping. When you feel overwhelmed, your prayer is your inner petition aligning with that awareness. To 'depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity' means release the old self-conception—the belief that you are ruled by guilt, fear, or separation. The cry is heard; the Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer. In Neville’s view, hearing is not a spectator’s act but the certainty of your state. If you revise your inner state to: I am heard now; I am answered now—the outer scene must adjust to reflect that conviction. Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly signals that the false voices dissolve when you dwell in the feeling that you are already fulfilled. The verse becomes a practice of shifting inner states until the outer world follows.
