Releasing the Inner Yoke
2 Chronicles 10:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 10 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse presents a people asking their new ruler to lessen the heavy burden imposed by their father; they offer their service in return.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the drama of your mind, the 'yoke' is not iron but a persistent thought-form carried from a former state of consciousness. It becomes heavy only when you identify with it as real. When you encounter these words, you are called to liberate yourself by changing the source of authority inside you: your I AM, the steady awareness that merely witnesses and can revoke constraint. The father figure represents a past ruler of limitation; the plea to ease servitude is the mind's invitation to softening identification and a lighter order of being. If you receive it as a political request, you miss the deeper invitation. If you answer with the declaration that you grant yourself relief, you align with the ruler who truly governs: the inner king, the I AM, who can ease any burden with a single act of assumption. The promise 'we will serve thee' becomes the commitment to serve a new order within, where freedom is already established in consciousness. When you inhabit that inner king, the yoke dissolves into light and movement toward wholeness.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the feeling of ease as a present fact. Repeat 'I AM free now' until that assumption settles in your body and governs the next moment.
