Awakening the Inner Temple
2 Chronicles 36:14-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 36 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Priests and people transgress after the idols of the nations and pollute the LORD’s temple in Jerusalem. God sends compassionate messengers, but they mock and despise them until wrath rises and there is no remedy.
Neville's Inner Vision
Observe that the outer rebellion is an image of inner states in motion. The priests and people fall into the abominations of the heathen because their consciousness has drifted away from its divine center. The pollution of the house of the LORD signifies a temple that has forgotten its true pattern and allowed fear, habit, or borrowed images to govern its chambers. The rising messengers—God’s emissaries sent with compassion—are the inner promptings of the I AM, nudging you to revise, to return to your true temple. To mock these messengers is to refuse the very revival they bring; it is a refusal to shift the inner pattern and therefore to alter the outer circumstances. The “wrath of the LORD” that follows is not punitive from a distant deity but the natural consequence of resisting the end the imagination already accepts as real. And yet the text also holds a cure: the remedy appears when you listen, repent inwardly, and reconfigure your inner imagery so that the temple is sanctified again. The divine presence remains close whenever you decide to align your states with the I AM, and let a fresh, holy imagination renew the temple.
Practice This Now
Practice: in a quiet moment, assume the end you desire—your inner temple restored and governed by the I AM. Then feel-it-real by slowly breathing in compassion and imagining a cleansing light purifying the chambers for five minutes.
