The Inner Throne Is Yours

1 Kings 1:19-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Kings 1 in context

Scripture Focus

19And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.
20And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.
1 Kings 1:19-21

Biblical Context

Adonijah gathers the king's supporters to claim the throne, and Solomon is not summoned. The nation watches to see who will sit on the throne after the king, signaling a crisis of rightful authority.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice how this scene mirrors your inner life. The king represents the I AM in you, the awareness that must sit enthroned in your consciousness. The gathering of oxen and captains is the restless imagination running to prove itself king, calling the ‘sons of the king’ to witness a new ruling idea. Yet Solomon—the servant of the Lord, your higher self—has not been invited. This neglect reveals a consciousness not yet using its power to establish a stable, conscious state. The eyes of all Israel upon you signify the universal attention of your mind—your thoughts, feelings, and circumstances—asking, “Who will reign in your heart?” If you neglect the rightful ruler, the old state warns that when the king sleeps with his fathers, the old self and its offspring will be counted offenders. The solution is not force but inner recognition: affirm the I AM as king, invite Solomon, and feel the throne as already occupied by the divine state. In practice, you can revise the assumption that you are ruled by fear or doubt, and consciously dwell in the feeling of the ruling presence within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the throne within. In your imagination, declare 'Solomon sits on the throne of my heart now,' and feel the peace and authority of that ruling state.
