Inner Wealth, Sacred Threshold
1 Chronicles 18:7-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David collects gold shields and brass from conquered realms and brings them to Jerusalem, equipping Solomon's temple.
Neville's Inner Vision
God is the I AM that perceives, and in this chapter David's gathering is your inner action of consciousness. The shields of gold on Hadarezer's servants symbolize the wealth of protective awareness—fearless, ready—already existing in your mind. By bringing them to Jerusalem, the capital of inner life, you convert external supply into living order within. The brass from Tibhath and Chun stands for durable ideas and crafts formed by imagination; when Solomon builds the brasen sea, pillars, and vessels, it signals the mind's capacity to hold the waters of life and to direct them in service of worship. This is not history of stones and metal but a drama of inner stewardship: wealth is not the end but the means by which the Kingdom of God is established in consciousness. True worship is the honoring of these inner resources as your own I AM aligned with divine order, transforming material provision into daily expression of abundance and care for creation. Thus the outer event mirrors the inner act: you are wealth and you are temple—now.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already abundant; feel the inner wealth as present reality and imagine placing it into your temple. Then move with the conviction that provision accompanies genuine worship.
