Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 19:1-3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 19 in context

Scripture Focus

1And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.

2And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the LORD.

3Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast prepared thine heart to seek God.

2 Chronicles 19:1-3

Biblical Context

Jehoshaphat returns in peace, but Jehu rebukes his alignment with the ungodly. Yet the text notes good in him, for removing the groves and preparing his heart to seek God.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, the king’s return is your inner scene, a state of consciousness arriving home to the I AM. The seer’s rebuke is not punishment but the inner alarm that you have wandered from stillness you call God. To 'help the ungodly' is to join thoughts that deny your divine nature; the wrath from before the LORD is the resistance of mind when you listen to fear instead of truth. Yet the passage also sings of good things: the removal of the groves is a clearing of idolatries from your mental landscape, and the heart prepared to seek God is the settled posture of attention, the readiness to dwell in awareness. So you are invited to see that peace is the natural condition of the I AM, and discipline—removing idolatries and turning the heart back to God—renews the entire scene, bringing your house in order and your life into harmony with the higher self.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the inner king returns in peace; revise the scene by erasing the groves and affirming that your heart is fully set to seek God. Feel the calm as already accomplished.
