Inner Kingdom Arising in Kings
1 Kings 11:40 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam; Jeroboam fled to Egypt and remained there until Solomon's death.
Neville's Inner Vision
Solomon, in this vision, stands as the outer ruler in your world—the voice that insists on control and punishment. His act of seeking Jeroboam’s life mirrors the urge in you to eradicate a new idea of yourself before it can be born. Jeroboam’s flight into Egypt is the psyche’s retreat into familiar supports, the old stories and images you lean on when your inner power feels threatened. He remains there until the death of Solomon, signaling that the old consciousness must die before the new order can reign. In the quiet distance of exile, Jeroboam's potential remains intact, waiting for the moment when the I AM is recognized as the true king. The Kingdom of God, in Neville’s light, is not a distant realm but the indwelling awareness that you are the I AM, the governor who need not fear the end of one stage to begin another. Therefore observe these scenes as inner movements, not outer events, and align with the I AM now. Allow the old king’s authority to dissolve in your imagination, and invite the rightful ruler—the true self—to awaken and govern from within.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and revise the scene: the old king dies in your mind and the inner governor takes the throne. Feel the sovereignty of the I AM establishing itself now.
