Neville Goddard on 1 Samuel 30:30-31 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 1 Samuel 30 in context

Scripture Focus

30And to them which were in Hormah, and to them which were in Chorashan, and to them which were in Athach,

31And to them which were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were wont to haunt.

1 Samuel 30:30-31

Biblical Context

David's gifts are distributed to the places where he and his men dwelt, signaling that the kingdom and its blessings extend to every corner of the mind. It points to inclusion, unity, and the presence of God filling all inner spaces.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your inner Bible, Hormah, Chorashan, Athach, and Hebron symbolize stations of consciousness. David is the I AM in you, the steadfast king whose presence presides over the whole field of your thoughts and feelings. His men are your currents of energy—habits, loves, memories—that move through every corner of your mind. When the verse says gifts are given to all the places where they haunt, it is not a list of external favors but a record of your own inner arrangement: the Presence of God is distributed to every haunt, leaving none vacant. The Kingdom of God, then, is the recognition that you already dwell in a single, unified realm of awareness, and you can render it practical by assuming this reality everywhere you are. Realize that all inner stations are attended to by consciousness, and unity flows through your psyche, your relationships, and your daily life.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, center in the I AM, and silently affirm that every inner haunt already receives Presence; feel a warm current flowing to Hormah, Chorashan, Athach, and Hebron as a sign that the kingdom is established now.
