Inner Wisdom, Riches, and Honor
1 Kings 3:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage states that Solomon was granted a wise and understanding heart, and that God also gave him riches and honor, marking a unique outpouring of divine favor.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this brief declaration lies the secret Neville calls the state of consciousness. 'Behold, I have done according to thy words' is not about an event in time, but about your own command to your inner man. When you fully declare with quiet certainty that you are the possessor of a wise and discerning heart, the I AM—your true Self—answers by fabricating the inner conditions that match your decree. 'Lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart' announces the established vibrational pattern: a mind that sees beyond appearances, that discriminates without fear, that reads life from a higher register. The secondary pronouncement, 'And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour,' reveals that prosperity flows as a natural consequence of the inner state. When your inner world rests in the assumption of such mastery, the outer world will arrange itself to reflect it. Do not chase wealth or fame; align with the feeling of the wish fulfilled and you will awaken conditions that mirror your crowned inner self.
Practice This Now
One concrete practice: Close your eyes and assume the feeling that you already possess a wise heart and abundant honor. Repeat, 'I am wise, I am prosperous,' and let that inner state settle as your current reality for a few minutes.
