Time, Anger, and Inner Wisdom

Psalms 90:7-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 90 in context

Scripture Focus

7For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Psalms 90:7-12

Biblical Context

The psalm describes days consumed by wrath and hidden sins. It then urges us to number our days and apply our hearts to wisdom.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of these lines not as God punishing from outside, but as the inner weather of your consciousness. The anger is the heat of a mind clinging to fear and separation, and the years you lament are the movements of a state you have identified as you. When you view life through the I AM, the awareness that you are, you see that time and wrath are not external decrees but the fluctuations of your own inner sight. To number your days is to become master of your inner timetable: you choose what vision will fill the hour. You do not change the outward calendar; you shift the inner calendar by aligning with the one presence within you, the I AM, which makes all things new. As you persist in this alignment, the sense of 'soon cut off' dissolves into a calm assurance that your days can be filled with wisdom rather than fear. Your task is simple: dwell in the present as the operator of manifestation, and let the awareness of your unity with God guide every choice.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: For seven minutes, close your eyes and assume the I AM is looking through your life. Silently declare, 'I am the awareness that numbers my days with wisdom,' and feel a steady calm settling, as if the day ahead were already guided by that wisdom.
