Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 5:9-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 5 in context

Scripture Focus

9And they drew out the staves of the ark, that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is unto this day.

10There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

2 Chronicles 5:9-10

Biblical Context

The ark holds only the two tablets of the covenant; the staves’ ends are visible, but the contents remain hidden. The covenant God made with Israel at Horeb is recalled as they came out of Egypt.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your consciousness is the ark; the visible staves point to form, yet the true content is the two tables written on your heart. There is nothing else in the ark—the enduring presence is the law you carry. When God made the covenant with Israel at Horeb, it symbolized your inward agreement that you are not separate from God and that your release from bondage begins by turning inward. The Presence of God is the I AM, the steady awareness behind every thought, not a distant place but a living, inner fact. As you acknowledge this inner covenant, the outer world aligns with your inner law, and life bears witness to it. Remember: the ark endures within through every circumstance, while the law remains constant, unshifted by appearances. You are invited to rest in this truth, letting your inner state govern your experience.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the ark; within me lie the two tables of the Law; I am in covenant with God now.' Then feel the I AM presence steady within and revise any sense of separation until it is felt as real.
