Covenant Grace Restored

2 Kings 13:23-25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 13 in context

Scripture Focus

23And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.
24So Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his stead.
25And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
2 Kings 13:23-25

Biblical Context

God shows grace and maintains His presence with Israel because of the Abrahamic covenant. The chapter narrates a shift in power and Joash reclaiming cities from Benhadad.

Neville's Inner Vision

I read this as a map of the inner man. The Lord’s graciousness and compassion are not distant favors; they are the inner state you awaken when you remember the covenant within you—the unchangeable agreement between your I AM and the source of all life. When you dwell in that awareness, you are not cast from presence; you remain in the glow of your own steady I AM. The figures—Hazael and Benhadad—represent the shifting scenes of thought and memory, the battles over territory in your heart. Three times Joash defeats the foe because the inner city learns to resist by faith in covenant power. The restoration of cities is a metaphor for reclaiming every area of your life that war has taken from you. This is grace, given when you align with the promise that your essence is kept in presence and protected by the covenant you embody. The outer history echoes your inner certainty: you are never destroyed; you are restored to dominion through awareness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit quietly, imagine the I AM as a warm living light around your inner city, and revise any sense of loss by affirming, 'I am restored by covenant grace now.'
