Whispers of Inner Kingship

1 Samuel 26:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Samuel 26 in context

Scripture Focus

14And David cried to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who art thou that criest to the king?
15And David said to Abner, Art not thou a valiant man? and who is like to thee in Israel? wherefore then hast thou not kept thy lord the king? for there came one of the people in to destroy the king thy lord.
1 Samuel 26:14-15

Biblical Context

In 1 Samuel 26:14-15, David publicly questions Abner, acknowledging his valor while pressing him on why the king was not protected, exposing accountability and loyalty in the dynamics of leadership.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice how David's voice in the crowd becomes your own inner audition for leadership. Abner represents the outer faculties that move to defend or threaten the crown of your awareness. When he asks, 'Who art thou that criest to the king?' your inner self answers through David: you are a valiant man, one like no other in Israel, and yet your attention must go to why the king is not kept safe. The king is not a person on a throne but the I AM that you are awareness, the living crown of your state. The 'one of the people' who came in to destroy the king is the impulse or fear trying to overturn your divine self. The scene asks you to separate the outer agent from the inner monarch and to hold the vision of kingship intact. By recognizing Abner as a part of yourself, you exercise faithful obedience: you refresh the memory that the king is ever present and protected by your conscious will.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, breathe, and assume the identity of the inner king. Speak to the Abner within you: 'You are valiant; I have kept the king,' and feel the reality of kingship now.
