Vine Expands to Inner Waters
Psalms 80:11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 80 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse describes a vine extending its branches to the sea and to the river, symbolizing expansive growth. It points to inner vitality that reaches far horizons.
Neville's Inner Vision
Verse 80:11 tells you that your inner vine is not kept to a single place but extends its boughs to the sea and its branches to the river. In Neville's sense, this is your imagination expanding beyond present conditions, pouring life into every waterway of your experience. The vine does not strive; it simply assumes the moves of consciousness and the waters obey. To reinterpret is to recognize that you are the I AM here and now; what you imagine as true becomes your life. Begin with a simple revision: 'I am the vine of life, extending my consciousness to all the waters of experience.' Then feel the expansion: a cool, spacious awareness flows through you, touching distant scenes as if they were existing already. If a fear or limitation arises, claim its opposite by returning to the feeling of expansion—the sea and river are just channels through which your vitality travels. Your task is to maintain that sense of rootedness in I AM while letting boughs and branches seek the waters, knowing creation follows order. The outer world will mirror this inward creation in due time.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes. Assume the statement: 'I am the vine of life, extending my consciousness to all the waters of my world.' Sit with the feeling of expansion for a few breaths, imagining vitality flowing through you as already present.
