Whole-Heart Praise Awakens Inner Life
Psalms 9:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse expresses a vow to praise God with all one's heart and to proclaim His marvelous works. It centers devotion on an inner commitment, not merely outward ritual.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine Psalm 9:1 as a map of inner sovereignty. The word LORD is the I AM within you—the aware presence that never flees. To praise with the whole heart is to refuse partial belief and to stand in the full conviction that your life is governed by that unchanging awareness. When you hold that stance, you are not praying for luck; you are aligning with the reality you already are: a consciousness saturating every scene with its own marvellous works. The works you show forth are not distant favors but shifts in your inner disposition that radiate into your world as events, relationships, and opportunities. Each moment of total praise becomes a revision of what you accept as possible, erasing limitation and inviting a new order into expression. By dwelling in praise as the ruling mood of consciousness, you anchor the life you desire in the very sense of self you affirm.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Sit quietly, breathe, and assume the feeling of wholehearted praise until it fills you. Then imagine one concrete marvellous work already present in your life as if it were true now.
