Inner Temple Open Ears
2 Chronicles 7:15-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage declares that God attends to prayers offered in this place and sanctifies the space so that His name and awareness dwell there forever.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner scriptures, the temple is your state of consciousness. When the text speaks of eyes open and ears attentive to the prayer in this place, it is describing your own attentiveness to the inner petition of your I AM. The ‘house’ is the sanctuary of your mind, sanctified by a decision of inward alignment; the name dwelling there forever signifies your true, unchanging identity as God’s presence. To Neville, this invites a steady, perpetual awareness: you do not seek affirmation from without, but affirm that your inner temple is already chosen and sacred, and that the divine awareness is eternally resident. The prayer is not a request to an external power but a movement within consciousness that you cultivate by assumption. Practically, you revise any sense of separation by dwelling in the feeling that the I AM is both observer and answer, that your eyes and heart are forever attuned to the answer already within you. Your inner temple remains open, and the presence you seek is the you who simply knows.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, place awareness in your heart as a temple, and affirm, 'I am the I AM; this space is sanctified; my name and presence dwell here forever.' Feel this certainty for a few minutes and carry the vibration into your day.
