Tender Heart, Peaceful End: Inner Kingship

2 Chronicles 34:27-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 34 in context

Scripture Focus

27Because thine heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard thee also, saith the LORD.
28Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.
2 Chronicles 34:27-28

Biblical Context

Josiah’s heart is described as tender and humble before God; after hearing judgment on the place, he weeps, and God declares He has heard him, promising peaceful gathering to his fathers.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner reading of 2 Chronicles 34:27-28 reveals a state of consciousness: a heart that is tender and a will that humbles itself before the God within. When you listen to the 'words against this place'—the inner judgments about life—your act of rend thy clothes and weep is the emotional release of an old image. As you soften, God answers in the form of recognition: 'I have heard thee.' This is not a distant judge but your own awareness acknowledging alignment. The promise to gather you to thy fathers and place you in peace translates as the inner movement back into the center of your I AM, where fear of future calamity dissolves. The external scene and its potential evils do not override your inner conclusion. When you hold your attention in that field of stillness, you are already ‘gathered to thy grave in peace’—you end the old drama and rest in the truth of who you are. Your present image becomes the future you experience, because imagination is the sole reality.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and affirm, 'I am heard by God; my heart is tender.' Then revise the scene by imagining you are already gathered to peace, letting that feeling settle as your daily experience.
