1 Chronicles 29:1

Biblical Context

David proclaims Solomon, chosen by God, young and tender, for a great task—the construction of a temple not for man but for the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the tale, the outer scene mirrors your inner reality. Solomon is your current state of consciousness: young and tender, yet chosen by the I AM to perform a great work. The palace is not a structure for men but the inner temple you are fashioning for the LORD to inhabit. When you hear 'whom alone God hath chosen,' you hear the alignment of your I AM with a purpose greater than your former self. The congregation of thoughts becomes orderly under this divine choosing. The work is great because it is the natural outcome of anchoring the I AM in action; the presence of God is not somewhere out there but established within as the living kingdom. The king—your inner ruler of awareness—ascends by faith into this temple, and the old self yields to the quiet majesty of God dwelling in you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, repeat: "I am chosen by the I AM for a great inner task; I am the temple built for God." Feel the foundation firming, hear the inner walls rising as a tender state is called into purpose, and dwell there as the LORD God dwells in you.
