Resting On God: Asa's Prayer

2 Chronicles 14:11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 14 in context

Scripture Focus

11And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee.
2 Chronicles 14:11

Biblical Context

Asa prays to the LORD, acknowledging God's unlimited power, relying on Him, and invoking divine presence as he and his people face a multitude.

Neville's Inner Vision

To read 2 Chronicles 14:11 through the Neville lens is to see a mental state, not a battlefield cry. When Asa cries, 'the LORD his God,' I turn away from fear of numbers and lean into the one I AM that is his true Source. 'It is nothing with thee to help' declares the absolute permeability of any limitation in consciousness: power resides in awareness that God is all-powerful now. 'We rest on thee' is a decision of inner posture: faith is not a request but a stance—an assumption that the presence of God is the grounds of action. 'In thy name we go against this multitude' signals that action follows the inner agreement with divine reality, not the size of the threat. Finally, 'let not man prevail against thee' is the inward command that the outer event bend to the inner truth. In my life, I adopt this same posture: declare that my awareness, the I AM within, is the source of all help, and proceed with quiet, assured steps as if the victory is already established.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, declare 'I rest on Thee' and feel the I AM as your inner Presence; in that feeling, envision the challenge dissolving into light and move forward with confidence.
