Dwelling in Thick Darkness
2 Chronicles 6:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Solomon states that the LORD said He would dwell in the thick darkness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Solomon’s notice that the LORD would dwell in the thick darkness points to the inner sanctuary of consciousness. Thick darkness is not absence but the womb of imagination, the quiet place where images are formed before they awaken to sight. The LORD, which is the I AM within you, is not lost in a distant night but present as the very awareness that thinks and feels. When you honor that the divine dwells there, you acknowledge that your state of consciousness is the temple in which life rises. Your assumptions, not outer events, determine what appears. In this inner darkness you may imagine and revise with assurance, feeling health, abundance, or harmony as if already real, for the I AM is always aware of it. The outer world aligns with the conviction that God resides in the inner sanctuary, where pure awareness remains untouched by circumstance. Thus your life becomes a visible light born from the unseen, confirmed by the steady presence of the I AM within.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and in the present tense declare that the I AM within me dwells in the thick darkness of my consciousness. Hold that feeling for several breaths and revise one area of life to reflect this inner reality.
