Inner Kings and Sacred Wealth

2 Kings 12:17-18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 12 in context

Scripture Focus

17Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
18And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.
2 Kings 12:17-18

Biblical Context

Hazael defeats Gath and presses toward Jerusalem; Jehoash plunders temple treasures to appease him, showing the outer fright and political trade of the moment.

Neville's Inner Vision

To read these verses through Neville’s lens is to see Hazael’s siege as a symbol of the mind’s pressure, and the temple’s gold as beliefs we cherish. Jerusalem stands for your inner sanctuary of awareness, and the hallowed things are the sacred ideas you refuse to surrender to fear. Jehoash’s action—gathering the treasure and appeasing the aggressor—becomes a tale of the habit of thinking you must pay tribute to outer powers to survive. Yet the Kingdom of God is within you, a sovereignty of I AM consciousness that cannot be diminished by external events. When you identify with the I AM and imagine the wish already fulfilled, the impression of loss dissolves; wealth becomes purified, inner stillness remains, and the external pressure recedes as if it never touched your inner temple. The events then move as outer signs of an inner turnover: you have chosen to keep your sacred substance intact in awareness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and revise the scene: affirm that the inner temple remains intact and wealth is secured in your awareness. Feel the wish fulfilled now.
