Inner Harp Healing for Saul

1 Samuel 16:16-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Samuel 16 in context

Scripture Focus

16Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.
17And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.
1 Samuel 16:16-17

Biblical Context

Saul requests a skilled harp player to soothe him when a troubling spirit comes; his servants find and bring such a musician.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this scene the evil spirit is not a external demon but a movement within Saul's consciousness—fear, unease, a sense of lack. The servants represent aspects of mind that recognize a need and seek a remedy, while the cunning harpist stands for a state of consciousness that can restore harmony through imagination and feeling. When the harpist plays, the inner atmosphere shifts and the disturbance yields to a new vibration. Sauls command to seek him is your decision to revision and invite a harmonious state into awareness, not a chase for external luck. The healer lives inside you as the I AM, guiding every event. The act of bringing the musician to Saul equates to inviting that harmonious state into present awareness. The music is a metaphor for practicing faith: identify the inner cause of disquiet, assume the remedy, and feel well as the new reality persists. Providence and presence reveal themselves as you persist in this inner assumption.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and image a master harpist inside your consciousness; let him begin to play and feel the unrest melt into peaceful presence; affirm I am well.
