Biblical Context
Psalms 66:1-2 invites all lands to offer joyful praise to God, to sing of His name, and to make His praise glorious.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville Goddard perspective, the verse is not about outward ritual but about the inner state that calls forth a joyful noise. 'God' is the I AM, the awareness that you are. The lands are your various states of consciousness; their gathering in praise is the unity of your inner life. When you hear, 'Make a joyful noise unto God,' you are asked to choose a tone of gratitude and confident expectancy. Sing forth the honour of His name — name here meaning the remembrance of your true nature, that I AM within, which names and owns all experience. To make His praise glorious is to render your inner world radiant by consistent, feeling-imagined alignment—feeling it real, assuming the presence of grace, recognizing that every event, every circumstance, is a movement of your own consciousness praising itself. The verse becomes a practice: clause by clause, claim the reality of divine presence, invite the heart into thanksgiving, and let the outer life reflect this inner celebratory state.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, declare, 'I AM that I AM, the source of joy,' and revise dull moods by imagining the whole life as one universal chorus praising God through you.
