Neville Goddard on 2 Chronicles 6:3-5 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 6 in context

Scripture Focus

3And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood.

4And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying,

5Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel:

2 Chronicles 6:3-5

Biblical Context

Solomon blesses Israel and notes that God has fulfilled His promise. The passage points to God’s presence dwelling wherever consciousness chooses to host Him.

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold the scene: the king turns his face toward the people and blesses them, and in that act you glimpse the movement of awareness blessing itself. The verse does not exalt a marble sanctuary; it reveals that God’s name dwells wherever you have built a chamber in your own consciousness. 'Since the day I brought forth my people out of Egypt' marks the memory of a state you can awaken now—the memory that you are free by the inner decree. There is no external temple required; the temple is a state of alignment in which gratitude, obedience to the I AM, and worship are lived as your inner reality. When you declare that God has fulfilled His words in you, you are simply assuming the end and letting your imagination enact it. The name of God, the I AM, is your own awareness, and to bless the inner congregation is to bless every external event that arises from that state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume the end—feel you are already blessed, the inner temple established, and God dwelling in you. Then bless your inner assembly aloud in imagination as if it were so, and notice life shifting to that end.
