Olive-Wood Doors Within
1 Kings 6:31 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse notes olive-wood doors for the oracle entry. The lintel and posts are a fifth part of the wall.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this line, the entering of the oracle is not a distant rite but a shift of your own consciousness. The olive wood doors symbolize a humble, patient heart that is fit to hear the oracle. The lintel and side posts, measured as a fifth part of the wall, declare a precise proportion: only a portion of your outer self is set aside for worship. The rest remains in daily use, but the boundary is real. When you imagine the doors opening and step through, you are not leaving consciousness but choosing a higher state. The presence you seek is the I AM within, already resident; it becomes accessible through the act of assumption. By declaring 'I AM' and feeling as though you are already on the other side, you revise your sense of self until the inner oracle speaks through your thoughts and feelings. Let the olive wood symbolize humility, and let the one-fifth boundary remind you that holiness is a disciplined access point, not a grand exterior ceremony.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and step through olive-wood doors into your inner oracle. Affirm 'I AM' and feel the one-fifth boundary of your wall place you in sacred awareness.
