Psalms 94:1

Biblical Context

It presents a cry to the Lord to reveal Himself as the one who enacts vengeance. It frames vengeance and justice as a divine presence to be experienced in the inner life, not as a distant external act.

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 94:1 invites you to see vengeance not as an external act toward others but as the inner state of justice arising from the I AM. When you hear 'vengeance belongeth,' you are summoned to awaken to the inner governor—the awareness that judges thoughts and beliefs. To 'show thyself' is the demonstration of this power within your being. In Neville's sense, God is the I AM, the constant presence that can revise a situation by changing the state of consciousness that produced it. If you feel resentful or threatened, you do not fight the world; you revise your assumption: I am the I AM, the omnipotent judge here and now. See the appearance of trouble as a range of thought, which you can transmute by embracing the truth of your own sovereignty. As you dwell in this inner court, providence and guidance reveal themselves as harmonious outcomes arising from your revised state.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, relax, and declare: I AM the I AM; there is only divine order within me. Revise any sense of threat by feeling the inner judge at work, and imagine the situation resolved by that justice.
