The Son of Rest Within

1 Chronicles 22:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Chronicles 22 in context

Scripture Focus

9Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.
1 Chronicles 22:9

Biblical Context

The verse announces a son who will be a man of rest and will bring peace and quiet to Israel during his days.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the heart of the reader, a son is born—a state of rest, a settled I AM that sits above the tumult of fear and doubt. The enemies are not merely people but stray thoughts, currents of agitation, and the sense of lack. When you acknowledge that rest is already yours by the I AM, you invite Solomon—the wise ruler—into your mental house. Solomon's name signifies order, discernment, and the peaceful governance of your inner world. By assuming this rest, you place yourself in a new kingdom where the external conditions align with your inner certainty: no more tumult, no more delay. The promise that 'Israel' will have peace in his days becomes your life, your daily living, when you permit your inner king to reign. It is not about waiting for conditions to change; it is about waking to the truth that change has already occurred in consciousness. Your present is the days of Solomon when you dwell in quiet confidence, and your world reflects that tranquility as the fruit of inner order.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, assume the state of rest as your present, and repeat 'I am the rest of God now.' Visualize Solomon on his throne within you, and feel the peace radiating outward, dissolving every fear.
