Feasting on Inner Faith

Psalms 79:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 79 in context

Scripture Focus

2The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
Psalms 79:2

Biblical Context

It depicts enemies giving the dead bodies of the faithful as food to birds and beasts, symbolizing extreme suffering. It signals a cry for endurance amid desecration.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this cry, the carcasses are not external corpses, but the states of consciousness that have died to your sense of power—old identities, fears, and beliefs about lack. The birds of the heaven and beasts of the earth symbolize inner thoughts that feast on your vitality when you concede to separation from your I AM. Yet the psalmist is not pleading to gods outside; he is waking to a law: what you nourish in imagination becomes your reality. When you see those dead forms craved by the inner 'enemy,' you are invited to reverse the scene by assuming the opposite. Declare that you are the I AM presence, the inner governor who feeds only life. In that assumption, the birds and beasts cease to own your attention; your feelings of abandonment and victimhood dissolve as you dwell in the certainty of wholeness. The experience of suffering becomes the soil in which a new self roots—one that perceives that all power is within and that future hope arises from present inner clarity.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM presence now as the ruler of your inner landscape. See the 'dead' forms dissolving into light and feel hope rise from within.
