Inner Inheritance of Manasseh
1 Chronicles 7:14-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage traces Manasseh's line through Machir and Zelophehad’s daughters, naming Machir's wife Maachah and the birth of Peresh, Sheresh, and their descendants Ulam, Rakem, and Bedan.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Chronicles, the lines record not a distant catalog but the theater of your inner states. Manasseh represents the broad field of your consciousness; Ashriel and Machir appear as dispositions through which breath and light move. The concubine who bears Machir is the surprise of life—an unexpected current within your awareness that yields a son, the father of Gilead—reminding you that your inner world can generate form even from unconventional energies. Zelophehad, who had daughters, signals that new creation is not limited to ancient lines but rises from your present moment as fresh possibilities. Maachah, mother of Peresh and Sheresh, gives birth to new traits; Ulam's line to Bedan are ways your mind organizes power and service. The thread through it all is covenant loyalty and truth—the belief that your right of inheritance comes from alignment with the I AM, not mere birth or tradition. When you hold these inner relationships with fidelity, your consciousness claims the full heirship of your own life, and the imagined world becomes your actual world.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the posture of the heir. Feel your inner lineage—the covenant and truth—already producing its children in your life; dwell in that felt reality for a minute.
