Wine of Inner Speech
Song of Solomon 7:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse portrays the beloved's mouth as wine—sweet and inviting—awaking speech in those who sleep. It hints at an inner sweetness stirring truthful conversation.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the line as an invitation to present awareness. The roof of the mouth becomes wine the finest kind when your consciousness stands in the I AM and tastes the truth you intend to speak. The beloved is your own inner self, the I AM that already knows the reality you seek. Its sweetness travels down, through your speech, and awakens the lips that have slept the subconscious beliefs and habits that once kept you silent. When you dwell in that taste, your words carry the vibration of certainty rather than effort; your inner speech aligns with the state you desire, and outer appearances answer in kind. This is not about coaxing change from without, but about choosing a state and letting the state express itself through you. Practice a moment of tasting: you are already speaking from presence. Then let your sentences echo the wine’s ease, so life bends toward your awakened speech.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already tasting the inner wine of awareness with every utterance. Speak from presence and feel it real.
