Read 1 Kings 10 in context

Scripture Focus

19The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.

20And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.

1 Kings 10:19-20

Biblical Context

Solomon's throne is described with six steps, a round top, and lions guarding the seat; the scene signals regal authority and the completeness of kingship.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through my inner science, the throne is not gold but the state of your consciousness. The six steps mark six elevations of awareness you ascend by assumption until you sit with the certainty of I AM. The round top behind signals the unity and perpetual circumference of your attention—the love that supports all you imagine. The stays and the two lions beside them are not furniture but guard-forms of attention and reverence—habits of mind that hold the vision steady. The twelve lions on each side remind you that wholeness comes when your imagination is ordered and directed by a single kingly intention. There is no rival throne because this inner realm is yours to rule, not a worldly crown. When you align with the feeling of I AM, you inhabit that throne and your outward world begins to reflect the sovereign presence you already are.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and envision six steps rising before you to an inner throne. Step up with the feeling of increasing certainty, then sit on the round seat, guarding your attention with unwavering awareness, and rest in the conviction that you are the I AM.
