Crowned Within: The Inner Crown
Psalms 8:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 8:5 states that God has made humans a little lower than the angels, yet crowns them with glory and honor.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your consciousness, Psalm 8:5 proclaims a royal reality already seated in you. The angels represent higher states of awareness you are invited to awaken to; being 'a little lower' is not a deficiency of your self, but the current degree of your attention. The crown of glory and honor is your natural I AM—your unaltered identity that you can claim at any moment. Do not seek approval from without; instead, assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled here and now. When you close your eyes and remember who you are, you invite the inner movements of glory to rearrange perception, choices, and relationships. Imagination is the instrument by which you rise into that crown; by dwelling in the sensation of majesty, you convert potential into lived experience. The verse invites you to realize that the distinction between you and the angels is only a difference of awareness, not essence. Therefore, live from the consciousness that you are crowned, and your world will reflect that inner sovereignty.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and repeat softly: 'I am crowned with glory and honor now,' dwelling in the felt sense of that royal state until it feels real.
