Inner City Fortification
2 Chronicles 33:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 33 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
An earthly king fortifies Jerusalem by building a strong wall and stations captains in the fortified cities. This mirrors inner protection and disciplined governance.
Neville's Inner Vision
In your consciousness, the outer wall mirrors the boundaries you consciously erect around your I AM. The wall's placement—west of the city, by the Gihon, toward the fish gate—signifies directing attention away from mere outerities and toward a focused doorway through which life-energy flows. The tall rampart is not a structure of brick but a habit of mind: a steadfast conviction that your awareness can be kept clear, defended against fear, and used to guide every feeling, thought, and action. The captains of war upon the fenced cities stand for your faculties—memory, imagination, will, and discernment—placed in charge to guard the gates where perception enters. By composing and strengthening this inner fortress, you enact Providence and righteous governance in the theater of your life, ensuring that your inner city remains secure while your vision remains intact, directing you toward wisdom rather than chaos.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'I AM the wall around my city.' Feel the certainty as you mentally place guardians at each gate of your mind, and imagine your awareness ruling with calm discernment.
