2 Chronicles 28:24

Biblical Context

2 Chronicles 28:24 describes Ahaz gathering the vessels of the house of God, cutting them in pieces, shutting the doors of the LORD's house, and setting altars in every corner of Jerusalem.

Neville's Inner Vision

The verse reveals a mind that has turned from its temple. Ahaz is a state of consciousness that has dismissed the I AM and worshiped appearances instead. The vessels symbolize your sacred faculties—perception, will, imagination, memory, and prayer—that are torn apart when you yield to fear or distraction. Shutting the doors is the inner act of closing off direct awareness of God, while altars in every corner represent scattered images of power, need, and false worship. In this moment of inner desecration you are invited to see that your inner sanctuary is not subject to externals; your reality follows your inner state. Yet the law remains: imagination constructs experience. If you dwell in lack or superstition, you populate the mind with idols and walls; if you turn toward the I AM, the doors reopen, the vessels are restored, and true worship flows through every chamber. Remember: the temple is an inner realm of awareness, always poised for revival when you align with your divine nature.

Practice This Now

Assume the state that your inner temple is intact, its vessels reassembled, doors open to the divine; let one central altar of I AM rule every corner. Feel it real by resting in that consciousness for a few breaths, allowing the imagined state to reshape your perception.
