Rebuilding the Inner Temple

2 Kings 12:6-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 12 in context

Scripture Focus

6But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
7Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
8And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.
2 Kings 12:6-8

Biblical Context

In 2 Kings 12:6-8, the temple's breaches were not repaired; the king orders the priests to stop taking money and repair the house.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider this scene as a map of your inner life. The temple is your consciousness; the breaches are neglected areas of discipline, belief, or remembrance. The priests who delay repair embody habitual thoughts and old loyalties that drain the temple rather than restore it. When Jehoash commands, "receive no more money... but deliver it for the breaches of the house," he reveals the key inner maneuver: what you previously cast into the outer economy of consciousness (money, attention, ritual) must be redirected to inner renovation. The I AM within, the kingly Self, awakens and calls for a reallocation of energy away from worn forms toward the present, acting temple. The act of withholding the 'money' of disbelief is not punishment but a reset of consciousness—an invitation to invest life in the inner structure that houses your sense of divinity. As you begin to repair, you do not strive outwardly for results; you align believing with the feeling of wholeness, allowing the walls of your temple to strengthen from within. The mere intention to repair is the first movement of creation; the subsequent sensation of wholeness confirms that you are indeed the builder of your reality.

Practice This Now

Assume the inner temple is already repaired; feel the walls solidify and the light flow through. Say, 'I AM THAT I AM' and dwell in the sensation of wholeness as you redirect attention to your center.
