Inner Temple Awakening

2 Kings 16:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 16 in context

Scripture Focus

4And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
2 Kings 16:4

Biblical Context

2 Kings 16:4 depicts sacrifices at high places and under trees; Neville reinterprets this as a lesson that worship is an inner state, not dependent on external temples or rituals.

Neville's Inner Vision

See 2 Kings 16:4 as a mirror of your inner life. The altars set up on high places, the hills, the trees, symbolize the habit of seeking sacredness in outer symbols. The text does not deny zeal; it reveals that worship becomes real when the mind is fixed in one awareness. The residence of God is not in stones or groves but in the I AM you call your own. The moment you believe you must travel to temples outside yourself, you have separated your consciousness from its source. Therefore the true practice is to turn inward, to revise the belief that anything outside your inner state can define you. Claim: I am the I AM; I reside in the one temple of consciousness and nothing else exists to worship. When you actually embody this state—feeling the presence of God as your own—your outer life adjusts to reflect a single, centralized reality. The kingdom comes, not from ritual, but from a settled conviction that you are the altar and the worship itself.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and revise, 'I am the I AM; there is no other god outside me.' Then feel the inner light rise and let gratitude permeate your day.
