The Ivory Throne Within
1 Kings 10:18-20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 10 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon's throne is described in grand material splendor—ivory overlaid with gold, six steps, and guarding lions—symbolizing royal power and unique authority.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture the ivory throne as the seat of your I AM, the center from which all outward forms arise. The gold overlay is the radiance you wear when you claim your divine authority. The six steps mark the stages by which a man shifts his beliefs from doubt to conviction; each ascent lifts you higher into the rule of your inner kingdom. The round back of the throne reminds you that every assertion of power circles back to spacious awareness. The lions standing by the stays are the guarding faculties of perception, faithful to your decree; the twelve lions on the steps symbolize the twelve ways you govern, through thought, desire, memory, word, action, time, health, wealth, relationships, work, rest, service. There is no rival throne, for every outward event is only the mirror of your inner state. When you dwell as the I AM, when imagination is not a scene but a reality you inhabit, your world answers with the beauty and order born from that kingly consciousness.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, assume the I AM throne now; repeat 'I AM the King of my world' and feel the regal authority flowing through you, imagining the surrounding room responding with order and abundance.
