Read 2 Chronicles 8 in context

Scripture Focus

12Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch,

13Even after a certain rate every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.

2 Chronicles 8:12-13

Biblical Context

Solomon maintained a steady cycle of burnt offerings at the altar, in obedience to Moses, with Sabbaths, new moons, and solemn feasts. The passage emphasizes faithful worship through a disciplined calendar rather than spectacle.

Neville's Inner Vision

Solomon’s act here is not a ritual in a distant temple, but a state of consciousness you can enter now. The altar and calendar are symbols of the inner tempo you set with your imagination. The daily burnt offerings are your steady thoughts of gratitude and alignment offered to the I AM that you are. The sabbaths, new moons, and solemn feasts mark inner cycles of attention—moments when you pause, breathe, and re-enter your true nature. Moses’ command becomes a law written within your being, a habit of heart that trains you to treat every moment as divine expression. By embracing this inner calendar, you stop chasing outer outcomes and begin trusting the presence that already remains. Solomon’s worship is your mental state: a fixed posture of reverence, a covenant of loyalty to the I AM within. When you live from this level, outward appearances reflect the inner order you have established through imagination.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume you stand before your inner altar; revise any sense of lack by affirming 'I AM, I am whole now,' and feel it-real by offering three daily grateful thoughts as if they were incense rising to your I AM.
