Neville Goddard on 1 Chronicles 29:14-16 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 1 Chronicles 29 in context

Scripture Focus

14But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.

15For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.

16O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand, and is all thine own.

1 Chronicles 29:14-16

Biblical Context

The verses affirm that we are not owners but stewards, recognizing that all we possess comes from God and is freely given back. We are transient on earth, while the divine remains the true source.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the I AM as the sole owner, with your mind as the workshop of creation. The verse is not about poverty but about alignment: 'all things come of thee' means the very thought that gives shapes reality. When you acknowledge that what you see as yours is really divine supply passing through you, you stop striving to own and start aligning with the flow of God. The 'store' you lay aside to build a house for His name is simply consciousness you invest in the imagined temple of your heart—a temple that honors the I AM by living as a fountain of generosity. As you assume that you are the present expression of God’s ownership, you feel freedom to give joyfully, knowing you are not deprived but fulfilled by the act of giving. The shadow of life fades while the eternal I AM remains; in that recognition, your life becomes a living offering.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the I AM; all I own is Thine; I give freely because I am the channel through which God blesses the world.' Then feel a surge of abundance and let that sense guide a small generous action today.
