Inner Joy Of Divine Judgment

Psalms 97:8-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 97 in context

Scripture Focus

8Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
Psalms 97:8-12

Biblical Context

The psalm invites communal gladness when God's judgments are heard. It declares the LORD's supremacy and the blessing of those who remain faithful.

Neville's Inner Vision

When your inner Zion hears the voice of truth, you awaken to gladness; all the mental 'daughters'—your thoughts—rejoice as the judgments of consciousness establish order within your life. The LORD you acknowledge is not distant; the I AM in you is exalted above every apparent power, and this recognition governs every circumstance. To love the LORD is to align with good and to refuse to entertain fear; this love preserves your soul and delivers you from the sense of wickedness by dissolving doubt in the light of realization. Light is sown for the righteous in your heart, a continual illumination that reveals what truly is; joy arises for the upright in heart as you stand in right consciousness. Rejoice in the LORD within and give thanks for the remembrance of holiness, for this holiness is your natural state and the seed of every blessing you call into form. Your life becomes the outward expression of inward sovereignty, a precise echo of the divine order already established in you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and revise: 'I am the LORD exalted in my mind.' Then feel the gladness rising as light is sown in my heart, and let that joy govern every thought.
