Hezekiah's Letter: Inner Petition

2 Kings 19:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 19 in context

Scripture Focus

14And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.
15And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.
2 Kings 19:14-15

Biblical Context

Hezekiah receives a threatening letter, carries it to the house of the LORD, and lays it before God as he prays. His petition acknowledges that God is sovereign over every kingdom and the creator of heaven and earth.

Neville's Inner Vision

Faithfully, I read the scene as a movement of consciousness. The letter is not a source of external trouble but a belief you have entertained about your life. When you spread it before the Lord, you are not placing ink on parchment; you are placing the belief before the I AM that dwells in you. The Lord between the cherubim becomes the inner sanctuary of awareness where your attention rests. When you declare that you are the God of all kingdoms, you acknowledge that no circumstance sits outside the sovereignty of your own consciousness. Heaven and earth are not distant places but the fields of your imaginative activity; you made them by the ideas you insist upon. The petition is a ritual of alignment: you revise the feeling of limitation into the feeling of sovereignty, you assume the answered prayer in present tense, and you feel it real now. Your world bends to the conviction that God is within you and that your kingdom is established by your awareness.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and spread the 'letter' before the I AM within; revise it as already resolved. Feel the sovereign presence in your chest and let that awareness reform your circumstances.
