Inner Fortresses of Belief
2 Chronicles 11:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse describes fortifying every city with shields and spears, strengthening the realm with Judah and Benjamin as allies.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you are cities of consciousness, and the king’s actions symbolize how you fortify your mind with steadfast beliefs and disciplined attention. The shields and spears represent unwavering thoughts and deliberate imaginal acts; to have Judah and Benjamin on his side is to align your vital faculties—perhaps faith and discernment—with the ruling I AM. When you imagine your inner city secured by such defenses, a sense of safety rises and reorganizes how you think, feel, and act. This is not merely circumstance; it is the mind setting the terms of its own reality. By assuming the state of being already fortified—seeing yourself protected and supported by your inner allies—you align outer conditions with your inner state. Rise within and let the I AM govern your inner town, and your life will begin to mirror that order.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine your mind as a fortified city. silently affirm: 'In this inner city, shields and spears stand strong; I am guided by the I AM; Judah and Benjamin are aligned with my ruling mind.'
