Inner Temple of Praise

2 Chronicles 7:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 7 in context

Scripture Focus

6And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.
7Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.
2 Chronicles 7:6-7

Biblical Context

Priests and Levites perform their appointed roles with music, and all Israel stands in reverent worship as offerings are prepared. Solomon then consecrates the inner court and offers burnt offerings, marking a sacred place for communion with God.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this scene, the outward ritual is a map of inner processes. The priests and Levites with music symbolize the disciplined faculties within you praising the I AM; as you align with their inner chorus, consciousness gathers in reverent stillness, and the people’s stance becomes your resolve to worship. The enduring mercy spoken of is the constant mood you cultivate inside, a love that remains regardless of circumstance. The middle of the court represents your centered awareness where you consciously shift away from limiting beliefs and offer the ‘burnt offerings’ of old patterns. The brasen altar’s inability to receive all offerings invites you to outgrow the old self and conceive a true receptacle—a renewed state of consciousness capable of holding your desired reality. Solomon’s act of hallowing the space is your decision to consecrate attention and feeling toward a new, stable state. Let mercy be your lived experience; the presence of God is your own awareness, awakening the kingdom within through steady inner worship.

Practice This Now

Assume you stand in your inner temple now, with the I AM fully present as your center. Feel the mercy that endures and imagine your new state being offered and received by an inner altar that can hold it.
