Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 16:5-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 16 in context

Scripture Focus

5And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.

6Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.

2 Chronicles 16:5-6

Biblical Context

Baasha ceases Ramah's construction when notified, and Asa gathers the stones and timber to build Geba and Mizpah.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember, reader, every outer event in scripture is a sign of inner activity. Baasha’s stopping of Ramah mirrors the moment you suspend an anxious building program in your mind. Asa’s removal of Ramah’s stones and timber to Geba and Mizpah is the mind’s power to repurpose energy from fear or contention into constructive order. The Kingdom of Judah stands for the Kingdom of God within you, the I AM at the center of awareness, guiding what you choose to build. Authority flows from alignment with this inner ruler, not from forcing others. The stones are your thoughts; you may reclaim them, reassign their use, and raise up a temple of peace and discernment. Practice: when a troubling image or impulse arises, do not fight it; imagine it being gathered and reshaped into a new, unified project of your choosing. Your inner city grows strong by how you redirect, not by how loudly you protest.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, assume the feeling of a sovereign king within; declare, 'I cease the old building of Ramah in my mind' and envision taking those stones to build Geba and Mizpah—inner landmarks of wisdom and justice.
