Inner Stewardship of Flocks
1 Chronicles 27:29 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 27 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Two stewards are named over the flocks, one for Sharon and one for the valleys. The passage records the division of labor among the herds, signaling inner orders and careful administration.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner theater of experience, Sharon and the valleys symbolize states of consciousness, and the named stewards embody the faculties you govern. Shitrai, over the herds in Sharon, represents your higher, expansive energies that prosper when you dwell in elevated awareness. Shaphat, over the herds in the valleys, stands for your grounded, attentive mind that tends to practical needs. The I AM within appoints these two as managers of your inner resources, inviting cooperation rather than conflict. As you accept this inner division, you cease projecting lack and begin guiding attention with intention. Your inner world becomes a field you steward with belief and imagination, aligning every tendency with the one life that animates you. Work and vocation become inner disciplines: to tend, balance, and harmonize the energies that rise and fall within you. You are the governor of your own inner economy, ensuring harmony across all states of consciousness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and picture Shitrai and Shaphat at the gates of your mind, then declare: I AM the wise overseer of my inner flocks. Assume abundance by feeling and acting as though this inner stewardship already reigns.
