Ark Returns to Your Inner Kirjath-Jearim
1 Samuel 6:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Samuel 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The ark is brought back and the inhabitants of Kirjath-jearim are invited to fetch it, signaling the restoration of the divine presence among the people.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the Philistines as the outer world of noise and result-seeking, delivering back the ark to Kirjath-jearim—the inner sanctuary of your awareness. The ark is the Presence of God, the I AM that you already are. When the text says 'the ark returns,' it signals a shift in your state: a conscious decision that the divine must be hosted within. Kirjath-jearim represents the inner posture that can receive holiness; the message to 'fetch it up to you' is your invitation to revise your focus and actively welcome the sacred back into your life. In Neville’s language, this is a return to the state you never left: you simply forgot, and now you remember. The moment you consent to the ark’s presence, you enter into covenant loyalty with your I AM—the unwavering awareness that you are, right now, the embodiment of the divine. The practice is simple: stand in awareness, assume the I AM as your own, and feel the presence restoring order to thought, feeling, and daily action. The ark moving inward is the miracle of self-recognition becoming your ordinary state.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, imagine the ark as a radiant Presence entering Kirjath-jearim within you; declare 'I AM' and feel its return as your present reality.
