2 Chronicles 17:10

Biblical Context

The verse shows that the fear of the LORD resting on surrounding lands keeps enemies at bay, creating peace for Jehoshaphat through reverent awe.

Neville's Inner Vision

To one who reads this as inner life, the 'fear of the LORD' is not alarm but a state of awakened awareness—the I AM, the living Presence within you, honored as your primary condition. When you sustain that reverent attention, surrounding thoughts and circumstances quiet themselves, for they bend to the power of your inner posture. The fear that deters attack becomes confident reverence that God is within and around you, and battles end not by force but by the reversal of belief. Providence guides your steps as you rest in the truth that you are God expressing through your form; peace, order, and safety arise as natural outgrowths of that alignment. Thus the Kingdom of God is near, operating now in your present consciousness as you remain serene while the world yields.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the posture: I am the awareness of God within me; let this reverent attention deter every sense of threat until peace becomes your lived experience.
