Biblical Context
Psalm 85:1 speaks of God showing favor to the land and restoring Jacob, freeing the people from captivity.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville Goddard lens, the verse is not a historical event but a movement of your own consciousness. The land is your current state of awareness. Thou hast been favourable unto thy land signals a favorable turn in your inner weather: a shift from lack to sufficiency, from doubt to trust. Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob speaks of release from the believed bondage of false limitations—Jacob representing your true self in bondage to fear or circumstance. As you assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled, you invite God, the I AM, to operate in the realm of imagination and consciousness. Persisting in the assumed reality aligns inner movements so the inner climate becomes freed; apparent conditions follow. The Psalm is an invitation to dwell in the end you desire, not the lack that precedes it. Step by step, revise your mental atmosphere until restoration becomes your habitual state, and your world mirrors it.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and imagine stepping into your own restored land—your inner awareness free from captivity. Feel the I AM within and affirm, I am favored; my consciousness has returned home.
