Inner Names of Worship
1 Chronicles 9:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse is a genealogical note of temple workers from the Asaphite line, naming Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's psychology, these names are not genealogical curiosities but inner states of consciousness that compose your inner temple. The list of workers becomes a map of where your attention is offered and how you worship in daily life. Each name marks a disposition you cultivate in awareness; when you invite that state, you enter a sanctuary where worship is a felt reality, not a ritual alone. The lineage of Asaphite Levites suggests continuity of sound, memory, and praise—the inner psalm you sustain as you live. The verse thus invites you to own your work and vocation as a sacred act of consciousness, a keeping of the temple within rather than a distant rite. To apply this now, assume the inner state you desire, revise your self-image accordingly, and feel that state as real in the chest and mind. Your external world will respond as the inner order takes root, and true worship will show up as deliberate, loving action in your family, your work, and your daily duties.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: In a moment of stillness, assume one inner disposition as your present reality (e.g., I am the keeper of the temple). Feel it as if you have always been that state, then act today from that assumption.
