Three Years of Covenant Peace
1 Kings 22:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse records a three-year period during which there was no war between Israel and Syria.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the Neville Goddard lens, that peaceful interlude is not a political incident but an inner state of consciousness. Israel and Syria stand for opposing currents within the mind—the impulse to strike and the impulse to defend—now set at ease by an implicit covenant with the I AM. The three years of no war symbolize a sustained alignment where attention ceases to feed conflict and dedicates itself to harmony. When you accept that the two nations are within you and that your awareness governs their fate, the truce becomes a real condition of mind, not a temporary circumstance. Peace flows where loyalty to the divine Self remains constant; love of neighbor is love of all parts within you, even those you once deemed adversaries. The outer events then reflect an inner unity: the belief in your unity with your higher self, which makes the imagined covenant credible in your experience. Begin with the assumption that peace has already taken root, and inwardly you will reorder your inner world to match that peace.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the feeling of I AM governing both sides within you. Visualize Israel and Syria yielding to that inner covenant and rest in the peace that follows.
