Inner Zeal and the Chariot

2 Kings 10:15-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 10 in context

Scripture Focus

15And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he saluted him, and said to him, Is thine heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give me thine hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
16And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. So they made him ride in his chariot.
17And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained unto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spake to Elijah.
2 Kings 10:15-17

Biblical Context

Jehu meets Jehonadab and asks if their hearts are aligned. He invites Jehonadab into his inner purpose, signaling unity of heart and action.

Neville's Inner Vision

With the Neville lens, the 'heart right' is a state of consciousness, not a place. The 'zeal for the LORD' is the vibrant conviction of your I AM waking within you. When Jehu offers Jehonadab his hand and invites him into the chariot, you are shown that two aspects of consciousness can walk together only when their love is truly aligned. The hand is consent to let your higher self govern the path; the chariot is the vehicle of your imagination, swift and sure, carrying the decisiveness of a newly awakened inner will. To go to Samaria and destroy the remnants of Ahab is the act of purging the old self—the beliefs and habits that no longer serve your divine purpose—according to the inner law you choose as your own. This is not conquest of others but judgment in consciousness: you decide what to erase in your inner realm, so that your zealous nature, born of I AM awareness, can rule your life with clarity and justice.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and affirm, 'My heart is right with the I AM.' See Jehu lifting you into a bright chariot, feel the zeal for the LORD rise, and visualize releasing every remnant of the old self as you ride toward a renewed inner Samaria.
