Ophir Gold Within Inner Kingship
1 Kings 9:27-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon's alliance sends seafaring messengers to Ophir to fetch and bring back gold to Solomon.
Neville's Inner Vision
The voyage is a map of your inner world. Hiram's navy and Solomon's servants are faculties of awareness and imagination working in concert under the kingly I AM. Ophir represents the treasury of your own kingdom—the stored abundance that exists as possibility in the consciousness you truly are. The journey across the sea mirrors your thoughts crossing the vast deep, and the gold is the felt sense of value already secured within your inner self. When abundance arrives, it is not a mere external transfer but a shift in circulation: resources, opportunities, and support arise as you rest in inner sovereignty. If you identify with the outer king—Solomon—you chase wealth; if you identify with the inner king—the observer, the I AM—wealth flows inward and outward as experience. The verse invites you to claim the wealth you are by affirming, 'I am the source, I am abundant, I am king over my world.'
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and picture the ship of your consciousness sailing across the inner sea toward Ophir; as the crew reaches the treasure, feel the abundance as already real and declare, 'I am wealth now.'
