Resting Fortresses Within
2 Chronicles 14:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse shows the king fortifying Judah because the land enjoyed rest; there were no wars during those years, a sign that rest came from the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the scene of 2 Chronicles 14:6 the word land speaks not of geography but of your inner territory. When your consciousness rests there is no war in your thoughts; fear, doubt, and struggle withdraw as if called away by a greater authority. The king’s fenced cities are not separate fortresses; they are the aligned states of mind you cultivate—the settled, watchful attention that avoids runaway craving and projects. The rest given to Judah is your realization that the I AM, your true awareness, rules the day. Rest here means trust in the stillness behind every perception, a sanctified space where creative energy can operate unopposed. In that quiet, thoughts that would breach peace are confined, and your exterior life begins to reflect this inner order; you dwell in a continuous sense of readiness rather than reaction. So the verse invites you to discover that your next step is simply to rest in the perception of already possessed peace, and the outward conditions will follow.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and breathe in the I AM presence. Inwardly say I AM at rest in my inner land and imagine erecting a quiet wall of calm that surrounds your day, letting that rest become your default.
