Inner Wealth of Imagination
1 Kings 10:16-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 10 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon forged gold targets and shields, symbols of wealth and kingly power. He placed them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider this verse as a map of your inner life. The two hundred targets and three hundred shields are not mere metal; they are fixed images your mind keeps to weave reality. Each target and shield is a focal point of desire and a guard against doubt; the six hundred shekels per target and three pounds per shield denote the weight your attention gives them, the belief you invest, the habit you rehearse. Solomon, the king, rules a realm within—the sovereign I AM who presides over your consciousness. When you assume a thing in imagination and feel it already yours, you set it in your inner treasury, in the house of the forest of Lebanon—a shelter of abundant, unassailable awareness. The gold you count outwardly is the inner currency of consciousness, proof that your state of being governs form. By aligning your feeling with the present reality of wealth and authority, you awaken the very structures Solomon built.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, place your hands over your heart, and declare: 'I am wealth and I reign; I am the sovereign I AM now.' Visualize a chamber inside you filled with golden targets and shields arranged by your will; feel the certainty that they already exist in consciousness.
