Inner Court Temple Manifestation
1 Kings 6:36 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon builds the inner court with three rows of hewed stone and a row of cedar beams, signaling a deliberate, sacred ordering of space.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this line of text lies a simple construction, yet it speaks to the architecture of your life. The inner court is not a distant ruin but a state of consciousness you actively erect in imagination. The three rows of hewed stone symbolize three steadfast states you refine within: awareness, conviction, and love—the unshakable foundation on which perception rests. The cedar beams stand for a living, fragrant presence you allow to pervade the structure, a sign of divine order supporting every thought and feeling. To build is to assume responsibility for the place where God dwells. When you commit to this mental construction, you are not decorating the outside; you are rearranging the inside so that attention is fixed on the I AM, the awareness that is your true self. As the court rises, your life aligns with that presence; actions become expressions of settled consciousness rather than reactions to lack or fear. The outward world then mirrors the interior architecture you have chosen, revealing that true worship is the continual maintenance of a sacred interior space.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are the architect of your inner temple. Build it now with three rows of stone and a cedar beam, and rest in the sense of God's presence filling the space.
