The Inner Wheel Of Worship

1 Kings 7:31-36 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Kings 7 in context

Scripture Focus

31And the mouth of it within the chapiter and above was a cubit: but the mouth thereof was round after the work of the base, a cubit and an half: and also upon the mouth of it were gravings with their borders, foursquare, not round.
32And under the borders were four wheels; and the axletrees of the wheels were joined to the base: and the height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit.
33And the work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel: their axletrees, and their naves, and their felloes, and their spokes, were all molten.
34And there were four undersetters to the four corners of one base: and the undersetters were of the very base itself.
35And in the top of the base was there a round compass of half a cubit high: and on the top of the base the ledges thereof and the borders thereof were of the same.
36For on the plates of the ledges thereof, and on the borders thereof, he graved cherubims, lions, and palm trees, according to the proportion of every one, and additions round about.
1 Kings 7:31-36

Biblical Context

1 Kings 7:31–36 describes a base with a circular mouth, four wheels attached to the base, and carved borders—forming a precise, sacred mechanism finished with cherubim, lions, and palm trees. The imagery emphasizes order, craftsmanship, and a holy function.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the vessel is not a thing, but a state of awareness. The base and its four wheels are the structure of your consciousness—stable, imageable, and turning at your command. The mouth of the vessel, round in form yet bounded by a square base, mirrors how belief can feel open and fixed at once. The molten axles, naves, felloes, and spokes symbolize the fluid, creative work of imagination, cast in your inner furnace. As you dwell in the I AM, you watch these parts glide into service, carrying you through each moment with grace. The four corners and undersetters remind you that attention anchors the four directions of life—thought, feeling, perception, action. The round compass atop the base points to an inner horizon; the cherubims, lions, and palm trees etched on its ledges are symbols you can call forth to guard your worship, elevate discernment, and invite the Presence that abides within. Your task is to align, imagine, and dwell in the unconditioned I AM, and the outer world becomes the outward expression of that inner order.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and place the base of your awareness in your chest; imagine four wheels turning smoothly there, molten and joined, and whisper, I AM—feel the Presence as real as breath.
