Inner Temple Treasury
2 Kings 12:9-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jehoiada places a chest by the altar, the money is collected and counted, and it is entrusted to those who repair the temple—carpenters, masons, and builders. This passage models true worship as orderly stewardship of resources for a sacred task.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within this text, the temple is not a stone building alone but the living state of your consciousness. Jehoiada's chest stands at the entrance of the altar as a symbol of the inner treasury into which you place beliefs and intentions. The money poured into it represents the energy you allocate to your life. When the scribe and high priest seal and count the funds, you are auditing your inner state, recognizing what you truly value and are willing to invest in. The distribution to the workmen—carpenters, masons, and hewers of stone—corresponds to your inner faculties: shaping form, laying foundations, and repairing breaches in your spiritual house. The work they perform is the practical manifestation of vision becoming reality. If you trust this inward economy, you repair the breaches of limitation, fear, or neglect by consistent action and mindful provision. Here, true worship is not ritual alone but a disciplined investment of awareness—giving energy to what you intend, and allowing imagination to express it as experience.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Sit quietly and visualize a chest at the doorway of your mind. Place your daily energy, time, and resources into it, then declare, I AM the steward of this temple, and I allocate to its repair now.
