Happy Servants Before Wisdom
1 Kings 10:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 10 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It proclaims happiness rests with those who continually stand before true wisdom and hear its counsel. Attentive listening becomes a doorway to joy.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture the scene as a drama within your own consciousness. The men and servants are your habits and faculties, standing ever before the inner throne of wisdom. To hear wisdom means to listen to the I AM within, the living God of awareness. When you assume you are always before this inner wisdom and let its guidance speak through you, happiness rises as a natural state of your being. You do not seek wisdom outside; you realize you are the I AM that knows and the wisdom it reveals. The king represents your attentive consciousness; the servants are your receptive faculties aligned to hear. This is the practice: revise your sense of self into the posture of one who is always in the presence of wisdom, and feel that joy is the truth of now. Your experience shifts as you believe and feel that wisdom is already present, guiding you this moment.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume you are always standing before inner wisdom; hear its guidance now, and feel happiness as your natural state. Repeat a simple revision: 'I AM before my wisdom; I am happy.'
