Read 2 Kings 13 in context

Scripture Focus

3And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all their days.

2 Kings 13:3

Biblical Context

Israel's anger against the LORD is described as bringing them into the hands of Hazael and Benhadad, and it lasted all their days. This verse presents a spiritual image: outward events mirror inner states of consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the anger of the LORD in this text is not a remote historical verdict; it is the charged atmosphere of your own consciousness when you refuse to accept the fullness of God-identity. Israel represents the inner nation of your beliefs. When that anger is kindled, you hand yourself over to Hazael and Benhadad—symbols of limitation, fear, and the image of power outside yourself that seems to govern your days. The phrase 'all their days' signals a persistent state until you revise it. The remedy is not political reform but a quiet transcendence of belief: assume the consciousness of deliverance. Know that the I AM within you is the only true governor, and that any appearing tyrant is but a dream image reacting to your imagining. By changing the inner frame, the external hand loosens its grip; exile becomes a temporary dream and deliverance emerges as your natural state. Practice seeing the present moment as already completed in consciousness: your freedom is not coming, it is appearing right now as you awaken to your true identity.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit quietly and assume the end—feel your I AM already free and in charge. Hold that certainty for a minute, letting the sense of deliverance rearrange your inner state and thus your days.
