Trusting the Inner Lord
2 Chronicles 16:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Hanani tells Asa that relying on Syria caused the Syrian host to escape his grasp; the true safeguard is trusting the LORD thy God.
Neville's Inner Vision
To hear Hanani's rebuke is to hear a summons to return to the interior throne. Asa’s fear dressed as prudence believed a foreign army could secure him; yet the commission came that day with the truth: the outer arsenal cannot substitute for the inward trust that I AM is your real power. In Neville’s terms, the Syria on the map is only a mirror of a state of consciousness—distrust, neediness, insistence on appearances. When you make the mistake of relying on anything but the I AM within, the host of Syria exits your hand not because of fate, but because your assumption has not yet owned its reality. The moment you acknowledge the LORD thy God as the governing awareness, Providence moves as you. Your present conflict becomes a classroom where you practice the simple but radical act: assume you are already under divine protection; feel the assurance, see the scene re-scripted with the inner power acting through you; the outer threats recede as your inner alignment solidifies. You are not pleading with history; you are reawakening your own consciousness to its sovereign trust.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Practice: Close your eyes, breathe, and revise your scene by stating, 'I am the I AM within me; I trust in divine guidance rather than external power,' then feel that trust as a tangible sensation filling your body.
