Inner Submission to the King Within
1 Chronicles 29:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The princes, mighty men, and sons of David submit themselves to Solomon the king.
Neville's Inner Vision
Notice that the phrase 'they submitted themselves' is not a clash of armies but a whisper of consciousness. The princes, the mighty men, and the sons of David are inner aspects of your self—intelligence, energy, passion, and memory—now bowing to Solomon, the king of your inner realm. Solomon embodies a higher state of consciousness, the crowned I AM that speaks with quiet authority. When this inner king takes his throne, the old order yields not by force but by recognition: you acknowledge that a wiser, truer ruling principle has appeared in your imagination. In this inner drama, there is no separation between king and kingdom; the entire self is rearranged to reflect the reality you intend. The inner subjects align with the new governance, and the outward life follows suit—the Kingdom of God within becomes your steady atmosphere rather than a distant event. Thus, submission is not defeat but an act of inner acceptance: you permit your life to be governed by the higher I AM, and your faith, not fear, becomes the path by which experience unfolds.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and envision an inner throne where Solomon sits as the king of your consciousness. Then assume the feeling that the higher I AM now rules and that every part of you submits to that king.
