Unified Praise, Inner Presence
2 Chronicles 5:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
When the trumpets and singers unite to praise the LORD as one voice, the house fills with a cloud. The glory of the LORD fills the temple so completely that the priests cannot stand to minister.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture the scene as a mirror of your own inner life. The multitude that sounds as one is your consciousness in harmony with the I AM, not a crowd outside you. The old scripts and priestly roles are the limiting thoughts that try to minister, yet when your inner chorus aligns with gratitude, the cloud of Presence moves in, not as weather but as awareness expanding your mental temple. The words 'for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever' are not distant history but a living law in your heart: mercy flows when you dwell in the perception that God is good and always near. As the cloud thickens, the sense of separation dissolves; the old self can no longer act in the room. In Neville's method, you do not imitate outward worship; you assume the state of this Presence and feel it real until it becomes your experience. You and the Lord, dwelling together, are one in the immediacy of now.
Practice This Now
Practice: in quiet, assume you are the temple filled with Presence; softly affirm, I and the Lord are one, and feel the cloud settling in your mind. Stay with that sensation until the sense of separation fades and your inner room becomes light.
