Inner City Fortification

2 Chronicles 33:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 33 in context

Scripture Focus

14Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
2 Chronicles 33:14

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.
