Solomon's Inner Wisdom Practice

2 Chronicles 1:11-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 1 in context

Scripture Focus

11And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:
12Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.
2 Chronicles 1:11-12

Biblical Context

In 1:11-12, Solomon asks for wisdom and knowledge to govern God's people, not riches. God grants wisdom and knowledge and, as a byproduct, wealth and honor.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this scripture, the kingdom Solomon seeks to rule reflects the inner realm you possess. The heart’s longing is for discernment, not gold, and that longing activates a state of consciousness in which wisdom becomes your operative power. When you center your attention on the quality you desire—wisdom, right judgment, steadiness—the I AM within responds by delivering the corresponding faculties. The verse says, because this was in thine heart, and thou hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people. This reveals that the outer gifts of wealth and honor come as a natural expression of an inner state well aligned with divine order. Neville's teaching would have you understand that you are not seeking external things, but affirming the inner condition that makes them possible. Your imagination is the instrument by which you form the state; to dwell in the kingly wisdom is to host the reality of wise rule. When such a state is felt as real, provision accompanies it, and your life mirrors the order you have embraced inside.

Practice This Now

Assume the state of Solomon now: I am wise and discerning, ruling with calm insight. In a quiet moment, revise any sense of lack and imagine wealth, honor, and provision unfolding as the natural expression of that inner state.
