Jezebel at the Wall Within
1 Kings 21:23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The LORD pronounces that Jezebel will be eaten by dogs by the wall of Jezreel; the verse presents a prophetic pronouncement of judgment on Jezebel.
Neville's Inner Vision
Jezebel represents a harsh, controlling attitude within you. The LORD’s pronouncement marks an inner consequence—when you identify with the I AM, you stop treating life as something to be punished outside. In Neville's terms, the verse invites you to revise the scene in consciousness: the 'dogs' are the unconscious appetites that feed on fear; by recognizing that the I AM is the perceiver and creator, you allow those appetites to be devoured by awareness. When you feel the verdict already done by the one I AM, the need to enact punishment fades and you step into a state of quiet mastery. The wall at Jezreel becomes a place of boundary where you choose to witness rather than condemn, and your outer world shifts to reflect this inner peace.
Practice This Now
Practice: Close your eyes and imagine the inner Jezebel—your harsh, ruling thought—being confronted by the I AM. Revise the scene so the verdict is already done and feel the release wash through you.
