Read 2 Chronicles 25 in context

Scripture Focus

11And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand.

12And other ten thousand left alive did the children of Judah carry away captive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.

2 Chronicles 25:11-12

Biblical Context

Plainly, Amaziah strengthens himself, leads his people to defeat Seir in the valley of salt, killing ten thousand. The remaining ten thousand are taken captive and cast from the top of the rock.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Amaziah not as a king in a land, but as the I AM awakening within you. The valley of salt is your clearing, the inner condition where old belief systems have dissolved. When you strengthen yourself in consciousness, you are choosing a new attitude, a new inner posture that mobilizes all your thoughts and feelings. The victory over Seir is the turning of a stubborn fear or limitation into a defeated impression by the force of your awareness. The killing of ten thousand is the letting go of multitudinous doubts, tiny negative states that once governed you. The captives carried away and the stones toppled from the rock symbolize the removal of those subpersonalities that would pull you back into old scripts. By acting from the assumed state—an inner king who commands with calm assurance—you align the outer scene to reflect the inward rule. In short, your life is the stage on which you demonstrate the belief you hold about who you are.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the state now, the inner king, and feel it real. Silently declare, I am the ruler of my inner world, and let that conviction guide every choice today.
