Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 12:9-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 12 in context

Scripture Focus

9But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.

10And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD.

2 Kings 12:9-10

Biblical Context

2 Kings 12:9-10 describes a priestly chest placed at the temple entrance to receive offerings, and trusted attendants count and store the money.

Neville's Inner Vision

To walk with this story is to enter the sanctuary of your own consciousness, where the I AM sits like Jehoiada beside the altar and a chest of attention stands ready for offerings. The chest is not a box of coins but a symbol of your inner priorities guarded by discipline. When the lid is bored and a hole is made, you are reminded that your awareness must be open to receive and to release; funds enter the temple exactly as your attention permits. The priests who guard the door are the quiet habits of mind that keep the space safe, and the scribe and high priest who count and bag the money incarnate the inner audit by imagination, confirming that your wealth is real only to the extent you acknowledge it. If you see abundance, your inner governor will not hoard but allocate—your true worship is stewardship of energy, time, and generosity, aligning with the inner provision of the I AM. Wealth becomes a practice of alignment, not a chase.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and picture a chest beside your inner altar. Drop a coin of value for a specific provision, then revise any sense of lack by declaring, I AM wealth; I steward this abundance now.
