Read 2 Chronicles 9 in context

Scripture Focus

25And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; whom he bestowed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.

26And he reigned over all the kings from the river even unto the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.

2 Chronicles 9:25-26

Biblical Context

Solomon's abundance—stalls, horsemen, and broad rule—are described as the outward display of a centralized authority. The passage traces his reach from river to the border of Egypt.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of this text as a map of your inner kingdom. The four thousand stalls, the twelve thousand horsemen, and the chariot cities are not metal and leather; they are pictures of disciplined states of consciousness you cultivate within. Imagination, trained by feeling, becomes the caravan that carries your decisions into life. Solomon’s throne at Jerusalem stands for the seat of awareness—the 'I AM' within you—governing not a mere city, but your entire range of beliefs and desires. To reign “over all the kings” is to center your attention, to unify competing thoughts into a single, sovereign mood. The river and the land of Egypt symbolize the ranges your mind travels while remaining anchored in this inner sovereignty. When you hold the image of abundance and order, your outer world mirrors an inner balance. Wealth is not the debit in a bank book but the fidelity of your imagination to a single, luminous principle: you are the ruler of your inner domain, here, now.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and in the imagination, assume the posture of the king in Jerusalem. Matter-of-factly declare, I reign over my inner lands; see in your mind the chariot cities and stalls filling with your deliberate thoughts and projects. Then feel the reality of abundant provision as your present awareness.
