Mind Seduction and Collective Will

2 Kings 21:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 21 in context

Scripture Focus

9But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do more evil than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
2 Kings 21:9

Biblical Context

The verse depicts a leadership that ignores guidance, letting a seductive state of mind drive the people into greater evil than the nations destroyed before them.

Neville's Inner Vision

Manasseh in this verse is not merely a man, but a waking state of consciousness that persuades the many to do what their higher self would not. 'They hearkened not' is the moment when attention is drawn outward to the loud siren of power, popularity, or fear. The nations the LORD destroyed symbolize earlier disciplined states the mind has abandoned; under seductive leadership the inner city leans toward greater evil than those former conditions. In Neville’s language, the outer world is a broadcast of an inner assumption. The crowd becomes a mirror of your current dominant belief. If you entertain the fantasy of leading others into mischief, you invite a stronger negative magnet. Yet you are not at the mercy of such influence when you align with the I AM—the true governor within. The remedy is revision: assume the inner king or queen remains faithful to love, truth, and obedience, and declare that seductive power powerless. When you feel that, the outward scene will conform to your renewed inner covenant, and true worship is established in your mind.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM is the governor of your mind and feel the inner voice align with obedience. Revise any seductive impulse until it dissolves and the outward scene reflects your renewed covenant.
