Solomon's Inner Kingdom Unveiled

1 Kings 10:26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Kings 10 in context

Scripture Focus

26And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he bestowed in the cities for chariots, and with the king at Jerusalem.
1 Kings 10:26

Biblical Context

Solomon gathers chariots and horsemen, placing them in cities under his rule. This outward show reflects an inner, organized state of mind.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the awakened self, the king and his chariots are not mere history; they are images of your inner life in order. The thousand and four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen symbolize faculties—memory, imagination, reason, appetite—set into harmony, activated for the well-being of the whole inner city. The cities where they are stationed represent the departments of your life, while Jerusalem stands for the center of awareness from which all activity radiates. When you hear Solomon gathering these forces, hear it as a reminder that abundance and power arise from a disciplined, unified state of consciousness under I AM. Wealth, in this reading, is the richness of attention and the mastery of thought, not merely outward money. If your outer life seems wanting, revise the scene by imagining these faculties already aligned and at peace, guarding your inner kingdom. The king at Jerusalem asserts sovereignty over your mind, not domination over others; it is the Kingdom of God within, established by your steady assumption and faithful feeling of the I AM.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes, assume 'I am the sovereign of my inner Jerusalem' and consciously gather memory, imagination, and will as chariots in your inner cities, feeling the kingdom already established.
