Neville Goddard on Psalms 64:7-9 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Psalms 64 in context

Scripture Focus

7But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

8So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

9And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

Psalms 64:7-9

Biblical Context

The psalm depicts God turning the wicked back on their schemes, their own words betraying them, and all recognizing God’s work as truth. It speaks of divine justice where plans backfire and people come to fear and acknowledge the divine act.

Neville's Inner Vision

All the events of life are interior states; the arrows symbolize judgments projected by your own thoughts. When you feel danger or attack, remember that the I AM within you is the archer. Shift your awareness from fear to the conviction that you are inseparable from God, and your thoughts aimed at threat wound only the old belief in separation. Your tongue then reflects this change, speaking truth rather than defense, turning the external witness toward the divine order you now inhabit. Those who hear your transformed speech will tremble before the power you acknowledge, yet they will wisely consider the order of your life as evidence of the one Life at work. The scene is a mirror of inner state, not punishment from without; revise the belief, and the world re-aligns to the reality of your unity with God.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the I AM within as the archer. Revise any fear by declaring its opposite and feel the truth of your unity with divine action, right now.
