Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 25:7-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 25 in context

Scripture Focus

7But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.

8But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.

9And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this.

10Then Amaziah separated them, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.

2 Chronicles 25:7-10

Biblical Context

In 2 Chronicles 25:7–10, a prophet warns Amaziah not to go to battle relying on Ephraim; God can supply more than material weapons, and the king separates the external army, setting the stage for a future shaped by inner guidance and faith.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the king represents a state of consciousness facing a choice: lean on external strength or awaken to the inner God in I AM. The 'man of God' is your inner voice, cautioning against reliance on familiar opinions (the Ephraim army). The words, 'the LORD is not with Israel' indicate that identity is not in externals but in alignment with the divine Presence within. When Amaziah is told, 'If thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle,' you hear your own inner command: act boldly from your present I AM, but not by the ego's fear-based plan. The prophecy that 'God shall make thee fall' reveals that trying to impose out-of-balance power collapses; God 'is able to give thee much more than this'—your inner supply of imagination and faith, providing outcomes beyond mere money or troops. The act of separating the army reflects shedding belief attachments that do not serve the larger purpose. The test becomes an invitation to trust God within to guide every choice, even when the outer alliance rages. Providence, then, becomes your present awareness, guiding every step toward a future that aligns with the divine nature within you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume I AM is present here as you. Feel God with you, revise fear, and picture the external army receding, while you stand strong, guided by inner supply.
