Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 20:2-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 20 in context

Scripture Focus

2Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying,

3I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.

4And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

5Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.

6And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

2 Kings 20:2-6

Biblical Context

Hezekiah faces a dire moment, turns his prayer to the Lord, and expresses a life of truth and wholeheartedness. God responds to his tears and prayer with healing, long life, and deliverance for Jerusalem.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville view, the wall is not stone but the boundary between outward circumstance and the inner I AM. Hezekiah’s action—turning his face to the wall and standing in truth with a perfect heart—represents a state change, not a geographical event. When he pours out his petition, he is not begging a distant God but reigniting his own consciousness, reminding it of its own fidelity. God’s word to him, that He has heard the prayer and seen the tears, means that awareness has acknowledged the inward petition and resolved the imagined separation between self and Source. The healing and the promise of fifteen additional years are not external favors but the fruit of a vivid assumption fully felt within: a lived experience of renewed vitality and divine protection. The third day is the moment of internal alignment when belief returns to its rightful place and the city’s fate shifts in harmony with that inner state. Your present moment can imitate this by turning inward, filing your heart with assurance, and letting your unseen God answer in kind.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and declare: I am healed, I am secure, and my life unfolds in perfect order. Feel the warmth, tears of relief, and the certainty that a new period of life begins now.
