Inner Idols Melt by Imagination

Psalms 74:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 74 in context

Scripture Focus

5A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
6But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
Psalms 74:5-6

Biblical Context

The verse shows a man celebrated for felling trees. Yet the carved idols of worship are suddenly broken.

Neville's Inner Vision

The verse speaks not of stone and timber, but of states of consciousness. A man’s fame rests on external acts—like axes striking thick trees—yet the carved images of worship crumble the moment the hammer of awareness sounds. This is not a collapse of history, but a collapse of dependency on outward forms. When you align with the I AM, your awareness remains constant while appearances shift; the outward structures fade, revealing that your true worth is not tied to what you cut down or erect. The destruction of idols becomes the birth of inner certainty: you are not your projects, titles, or possessions, but the living consciousness that imagines them into being and can dissolve them with equal ease. In this light, the fragmentation of external symbols is a doorway to permanent, inner reality—the unchanging I AM that dwells within you.

Practice This Now

Assume the state I AM now and feel it real. Visualize the carved self-image collapsing under a hammer of awareness, and rest in the unchanging presence within.
