Inner War of Kings: Abijah’s Battle

2 Chronicles 13:1-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 13 in context

Scripture Focus

1Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
2He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
3And Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valour.
2 Chronicles 13:1-3

Biblical Context

Abijah begins to reign in Judah and faces a war with Jeroboam, marshaling 400,000 chosen soldiers against Jeroboam’s 800,000. The odds are stark, and the battle is arrayed.

Neville's Inner Vision

From Neville’s teaching, the scene is not a historical clash of armies but a confrontation of states of consciousness. The eighteenth year signals your readiness to crown a sovereign I AM within. Jeroboam’s 800,000 represents external appearances—fear, habit, and the crowd-mentality that would rule your mind. Abijah’s 400,000, though smaller in number, stands as a disciplined, chosen state of consciousness—certainty, fidelity to inner order, and trust in Providence. The war is internal: will you yield to the belief that life is governed by odds, or will you claim your inner kingship by imagining, feeling, and assuming the state that already is yours in God? The victory comes through revision, not competition: you revise your sense of power, align with the I AM, and let the inner army of conviction march forth. When you dwell in that kingly state, external scenes rearrange to reflect it, and the kingdom of God manifests as your inner reality.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the I AM; I reign now.' Then picture your inner army of conviction marching inward, until fear of external odds dissolves and Providence guides you to peace.
