Inner Gates and Fortresses
2 Chronicles 27:3-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 27 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The king fortified gates and walls, built cities, and defeated the Ammonites, gaining tribute.
Neville's Inner Vision
Observe that the chronicler records a king who builds gates, walls, cities, and towers, yet the truth Neville teaches is that these deeds are healed acts of consciousness. The high gate of the house of the LORD is the rising I AM in you—the boundary you set between the known and the possible. The wall of Ophel and the towers on the mountains are your faculties—imagination, discipline, courage—built in the mind until they stand guard over your days. To prevail against the Ammonites is to overcome the inner fears, doubts, and lack that would undermine your work. The tribute that comes—silver, wheat, barley—signifies the exact abundance released when your inner state aligns with your outer world. When you cultivate such fortified inner states, you move through life with steadiness, and circumstances bend to reflect your maintained consciousness: resources appear, conflicts subside, and a protected, creative kingdom grows within.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the state, 'I am the fortified mind.' Visualize a high gate at the door of your awareness, then feel abundance flowing in as if the inner kingdom were drawing tribute into your life.
