Inside Babylon, Inside Kingdom
2 Kings 20:16-18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 20 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah declares that all possessions and stores of Hezekiah's house will be taken to Babylon. He also says his sons will be taken away and made eunuchs in the palace of Babylon.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville lens, this is not a threat but a map of inner weather. Babylon stands for the belief in separation—an inner exile from the I AM. The house and what fathers laid up symbolize your outward identifications, possessions, and repeat patterns; their removal signals the shedding of old consciousness. The 'sons' you beget are not future people but fresh ideas and capacities arising in mind; their being taken to the palace of the king of Babylon represents the moment when you let an old dream govern your sense of worth. Yet the real ruler remains the I AM within you, the inner king who never leaves the throne. The prophecy invites you to awaken to your true governance: even when appearances suggest loss, your consciousness is being reorganized toward a fuller, more sovereign state. When you accept the 'exile' as inner reorientation, you realize that nothing essential is lost; the inner kingdom endures, and the external world simply reflects your renewed consciousness. Your true home is within, where the I AM reigns, now and forever.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume the I AM is the keeper of your inner house and revise the scene to feel that nothing essential is carried away. Silently affirm, I AM, my inner kingdom remains intact, now and forever.
