Elijah’s Inner Fire Within

2 Kings 1:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 1 in context

Scripture Focus

12And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
2 Kings 1:12

Biblical Context

Elijah proclaims that if he truly bears the status of a man of God, divine fire will descend to consume the messengers; the event is presented as a dramatic demonstration of God's power against his foes.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the true 'Elijah' is the I AM that knows itself as God. The line 'If I be a man of God' is not a claim to external authority but the inner decision to identify with the divine presence. The fire that descends is not vengeance but the living energy of awareness burning away disbelief. The fifty and their captains are the chorus of every doubt, habit, and fear that clamor for control; when you declare your oneness with God, that chorus is consumed by the flame of realization. In this inner drama, the presence of God is the steadfast I AM within you, witnessing and rearranging your experience according to the new state you hold. What you call external events are simply the effects of your inner posture. By embracing the unassailable truth of your divinity, you invite the power to act through you in all situations, transforming fear into clarity, resistance into action, and doom into a new creation.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place a hand on your chest, and repeat 'I AM that I AM.' Feel a white-hot flame ignite within, consuming doubt and birthing decisive faith.
