Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 30:7-8 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 30 in context

Scripture Focus

7And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers, who therefore gave them up to desolation, as ye see.

8Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you.

2 Chronicles 30:7-8

Biblical Context

2 Chronicles 30:7-8 urges turning away from the past rebellion and entering the Lord's sanctified sanctuary. It calls you to serve the Lord your God so that His fierce wrath may turn away.

Neville's Inner Vision

All the admonitions here are not external rules but inner revisions of consciousness. The 'fathers' and 'brethren' who trespassed are your former states of doubt and separation from God. To be 'stiff-necked' is to resist the natural alignment of your I AM with all life; to 'yield yourselves unto the LORD' is to yield to the highest self you really are. The sanctuary is the sanctified temple of consciousness you can enter now in imagination, a state that is constant and not subject to outward desolation. When you serve the LORD your God in feeling and awareness, you invite the fierceness of wrath to turn away—not as punishment, but as the dissolution of inner resistance under the light of your awakened state. The practical gospel remains the inner act: assume you are already within that sanctuary, and dwell there in the conviction of oneness. Let the outer scene bend to your inward state by remembering that you are the I AM, and your life will reflect the divine order you have already established.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and step into your sanctified inner sanctuary, then softly repeat, 'I yield to the LORD now; I am the I AM' until the resistance dissolves and peace is felt.
