Inner Reign and Idols

2 Kings 15:27-28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 15 in context

Scripture Focus

27In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned twenty years.
28And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
2 Kings 15:27-28

Biblical Context

Pekah becomes king of Israel in Samaria for twenty years and continues the sins of Jeroboam, keeping Israel in disobedience. The verse links reign and action to inner allegiance—an invitation to examine where in our minds we bow to idols.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Pekah as a state of consciousness that has claimed outer rule while clinging to old idols. The 'sins of Jeroboam' are not merely historical acts; they are habitual thoughts and images that worship power, security, or status as if they stood apart from God. In this inner theater, the 'reign' you see in Samaria is the daily administration of a mind led by fear, rather than the I AM that you truly are. The truth Neville teaches is that kingship and accountability begin within. When you notice your life echoing an ancient idol, you are not condemned; you are invited to rebuild the inner temple and declare the I AM as sovereign. By choosing to align every decision and belief with the I AM—refusing to worship any false idol—you dissolve the pattern. Your present experience becomes a reflection of that inner alignment, not of a faded script of the past. The moment you revise your inner king, you revoke the old decree.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit in quiet, breathe, and revise one habitual idol by affirming, 'I AM the king in me; I remove all idols; I reign now as the I AM.' Then feel the release as the inner governor takes charge.
