Dwelling Across Mind's Borders
1 Chronicles 5:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse records a people dwelling across Gilead, Bashan, and the suburbs of Sharon, along their borders.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the spiritual reading, the places are states of consciousness and the borders are the edges where old limits meet your fresh acts of imagining. When the text says they dwelt in Gilead, Bashan, and the suburbs of Sharon, it is not about geography but about the mind's ability to settle in fullness wherever attention is directed. Your I AM, or God within, does not reside in a single corner; it thrives as the awareness that witnesses and enacts through every region you claim as yours. The act of dwelling is an inner assurance that you are resident in abundance, protection, and unity across the entire field of your consciousness. The borders symbolize thresholds where you previously hesitated, now crossed by the feeling of 'it is done' and the acceptance that all regions are under Providence. As you imagine, you are not moving in space but revising your inner terrain so that every sector—Gilead, Bashan, Sharon's suburbs—feels safe, prosperous, and aligned with the higher will. Trust that the imagination you steward becomes your actual experience, for imagination is the organ of reality in this teaching.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: In a moment of quiet, assume this inner dwelling is already complete; imagine walking through your mind and feeling I AM prevalent in every region. Then carry that feeling into daily life as if it is your natural state.
