The Inner Arrow of Deliverance

2 Kings 13:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 13 in context

Scripture Focus

17And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed them.
2 Kings 13:17

Biblical Context

Elisha instructs to open the east window and shoot an arrow, declaring an act of deliverance from Syria; the event portrays faith expressed through decisive action and divine protection.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville view, the window is a symbol of opening consciousness toward the east—the rising, believing self. The command to shoot becomes a deliberate act of imagination, a mental decree that seals the desired reality. The arrow is not a weapon against a distant army, but a focused thought formed in feeling-for-result, the very breath of the I AM taking form. When Elisha calls this an arrow of the LORD's deliverance, he names the inner process whereby your awareness moves against limitation and consumes it. The Syria you face represents any persisting belief that you are small, subject to circumstance, or defined by past conditions. As you envision the arrow's flight, you are not attacking an external foe; you are aligning with the eternal power within—your true I AM. Your victory comes as you dwell in the feeling that deliverance is already accomplished in consciousness, and the outer scene must adjust to reflect that inner state. Practice is the essential bridge from symbol to lived result: assume, revise, and feel it real until your inner vision matches your outer world.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and picture the eastern window opening to a bright dawn. Repeatedly declare softly, 'The arrow of deliverance is now shot,' and feel the I AM dissolving every limitation until the outer scene reflects your inner triumph.
