Inner Judgment of the Divine Council
Psalms 82:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 82 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 82:1-2 pictures God standing in the council of the mighty, judging among the 'gods,' and asks how long unjust judgments and favoritism will persist. It calls for a shift toward fair discernment.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Neville reading, 'God' is the I AM awareness you are. The 'congregation of the mighty' are inner powers you call to judge—memory, reason, imagination, feeling—those 'gods' within. When the text asks how long you will judge unjustly and accept the persons of the wicked, it exposes a habit of identifying with appearances and letting bias rule your inner courtroom. You stand as the one who judges, not to condemn but to awaken your faculties to their true function: to reflect the truth of unity. Selah invites a pause to revise your verdicts and release separation. By inhabiting the state of the observer who sees through illusion, you move from condemnation to alignment with justice, clarity, and love. When you persist in that inner ruling, the inner gods align and outward life mirrors the justice you have chosen. This is how Psalms 82:1-2 becomes a living invitation to inner sovereignty.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume the I AM as the supreme judge within your inner council, and revise any unjust judgment by declaring, 'I am the God of justice within me,' then feel the new state as present reality.
