Inner Prayer Through Crisis

2 Kings 19:2-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 19 in context

Scripture Focus

2And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4It may be the LORD thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
2 Kings 19:2-4

Biblical Context

2 Kings 19:2-4 shows Hezekiah, with priests and elders in sackcloth, seeking Isaiah during a time of trouble. They ask God to hear Rabshakeh's words and to lift up a prayer for the remnant left.

Neville's Inner Vision

The crisis in the passage is not a distant siege but a storm in your own consciousness. The elders in sackcloth are the humbled aspects of mind acknowledging that the old fears no longer serve. Rabshakeh’s blasphemous words are your doubts projected outward, challenging the living God you are. The invitation is to turn the scene inward and hear the I AM—the living God within—answering from your essential life. When the messengers say, lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left, you are being shown the method: do not argue with fear, revise it by assuming that God is listening now and that your petition is already heard. The remnant left are the seeds of a new creation inside you, not a shrinking faction but the eternal spark awaiting expression through your assured consciousness. The prophecy here becomes your personal work: in confidence that God is present, you allow the birth of a new state of being. Your role is not to conquer without but to awaken within, by an unshakable assumption that the answer is already given in the I AM.

Practice This Now

Assume you are already heard: close your eyes, breathe, and say in present tense, 'The I AM hears me now.' Visualize the remnant within as light rising and let that certainty color your next moment.
