The Inner Covenant Reclaimed

2 Kings 17:15-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 17 in context

Scripture Focus

15And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them.
16And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
17And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
2 Kings 17:15-17

Biblical Context

2 Kings 17:15-17 depicts a people who reject the LORD's statutes and covenant, turning to vanity and idols. They align with surrounding nations, depart from commandments, and even sacrifice their children to fear and enchantment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Ask yourself, who is the one living this tale in you? In the inner reading, 2 Kings 17:15-17 shows a people who reject the LORD’s statutes and covenant because they have identified with vanity, with outer appearances, with fear of surrounding nations. When you dwell in that state, you build molten calves of opinion, a grove of opinion, and you worship the host of heaven—as if images and omens could satisfy your deeper need. But the I AM within you does not bond with fear or enchantment; it remains the living law of awareness. To reinterpret is to awaken from that false allegiance, to revise the belief that you are subject to outside powers. Return to the covenant of your own identity as the I AM, and feel the truth settling into every cell: you are whole, you are guided, you are the imagination that creates. As you assume a new state of consciousness—loyal to the inner covenant—external conditions align with your acknowledged reality, and the old idols lose their power.

Practice This Now

Practice: Close your eyes and repeat, 'I am the I AM; I am in covenant with my own life.' Then revise any sense of lack by feeling, 'I have already been restored to loyalty with the inner law; the world conforms to this inner state.'
