David's Inner Lineage Realized
1 Chronicles 3:1-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David’s sons are listed as the seed of his kingdom, showing the inner line of his kingship born in Hebron and Jerusalem.
Neville's Inner Vision
These names are not merely genealogies; they are living states of consciousness within you. Hebron and Jerusalem stand for inner stages where your ruling I AM awakens and expands its dominion. Amnon, the first-born, arises from Ahinoam—desire beginning to stir in your awareness; Absalom, the son of Maachah, signals rebellious impulse seeking the throne; Adonijah, Shephatiah, Ithream—successive impulses and ambitions, each born in the field of your attention. The six born in Hebron mark the early, formative acts by which you shape your inner government; the longer reign in Jerusalem reflects your choice to rule from a centered awareness rather than from scattered impulses. The four children born there—Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon—represent steadier faculties when bathed in Bathshua’s influence, your higher imagination aligning with wisdom. The nine named thereafter fill the growing canopy of your inner kingly life, while the note about the concubines and Tamar reminds you that every half-hidden or 'shadow' state is acknowledged in the complete kingdom of God within you. Your task is to acknowledge these as your own inner births and claim sovereignty through imagination.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, observe an inner roster of 'sons' as distinct states of consciousness; then revise: 'I am the I AM, the king who births and rules these states.' Feel it-real for five minutes, then carry the sense of sovereignty into your day.
