Inner Mercy and Justice Revealed
Psalms 99:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 99 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 99:8 speaks of God answering and forgiving His people, while enacting righteous correction on their inventions.
Neville's Inner Vision
Here the psalm reveals the inner God at work in the I AM within you: forgiveness stands at the door of every judgment you hold about yourself. The God who forgiveth is awareness that can see past error, while the vengeance on their inventions is the corrective force that dislodges false beliefs you have imagined. The vengeance is not wrath but alignment: when you stop feeding a story of lack, guilt, or separation and assume a higher idea, your inner state settles into harmony. Neville's psychology teaches that every verse describes your inner climate: if you feel condemned, remember the I AM's nature as merciful and just, restoring your original wholeness. Forgiveness is the true condition of the I AM, and justice is the restoration of your right feeling. The inventions are only mistaken thoughts; their apparent punishment dissolves as you persist in a higher assumption. Rest in the I AM, let mercy be your habitual tone, and watch scenes in consciousness align to reflect that inner forgiveness.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, place yourself in the I AM as your present state, and revise any troubling memory by declaring that you forgive and are forgiven; you restore order now. Then feel the release as the imagined misdeeds fade and your inner world becomes calm.
