Inner Builders of Ono
1 Chronicles 8:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse names Elpaal's sons—Eber, Misham, and Shamed—who built Ono and Lod along with their towns, marking an early act of family-led community formation. Their work shows care for land and people by founding places for living and gathering.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider Ono and Lod as inner towns within your consciousness, built not by bricks but by decisions of the I AM. The sons of Elpaal stand for faculties of your nature coming into alignment—faith, action, and union—creating a shared habitat where life can be nurtured. When you accept that these inner dispositions can 'build' places in your life, your surroundings respond: relationships, routines, and responsibilities settle into a coherent community. The verse speaks of unity through collaboration; so when you hold one idea and invite others to share it, you are actually erecting the city of Ono in your mind. The outer towns mirror the inner order you maintain. To practice, dwell in the feeling that your surrounding world is a built environment of harmony, not chaos, and revise any fear into a given that care and cooperation are already established by your creative I AM. Your imagination becomes the architect; the world follows the inner blueprint you accept as real.
Practice This Now
Assume right now that you are the builder of Ono and Lod within your life. Close your eyes, repeat 'I AM unity and stewardship now,' and feel the towns taking shape in your inner field, then observe how your outer world begins to reflect that order.
