Open Mouth to Receive Abundance
Psalms 81:8-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 81 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The psalm invites Israel to listen to God, reject idols, and live by covenant loyalty; when they refuse, they drift into their own desires.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the people of old become your current self. When you hearken, you align with the I AM who freed you from bondage, and the voice within becomes a doorway to fullness. 'There shall no strange god be in thee' means release every idol of fear, lack, or competing pictures that pretend to rule your life. The line 'open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it' is not a command to beg; it is a covenant of receptivity: widen the imagination's mouth and trust that the inner God will supply images of abundance and wholeness. When you sin against this listening by following your own counsels, you walk away from the covenant and give power to your own cravings. Yet this is not punishment but a reminder that you can return to the inner altar at any moment. The remedy is simple: assume you already possess the very thing you seek, revise every thought that says otherwise, and feel it as real through the senses of inner seeing and inner doing. Listen, then imagine, and let the I AM within fill your life with the image of fulfilled desire.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'I am listening to the I AM within; I open my mouth wide to receive.' Then imagine a vivid scene that shows your desire fulfilled, and feel it as real now.
