Inner Inquiry of the Word Within
2 Kings 22:12-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The king sends for guidance about a found book and Judah's fate; leaders seek the Lord through a prophetess to understand how to respond, recognizing the need to heed the inner word found within.
Neville's Inner Vision
2 Kings 22:12-14 becomes a mirror for your own mind. The king's command to inquire arises from fear of the book found in the heart—the inner law you have neglected cannot be ignored forever. Hilkiah and the others are not seeking God out there; they step into the inner sanctuary where the I AM speaks. Huldah the prophetess represents your higher listening, the imaginal faculty that communicates when you pause and listen. When you listen, the words on the page become living instructions in present tense, directing your thoughts, choices, and obedience. The wrath declared against the fathers dissolves as you awaken to the truth that the book’s authority is not a decree outside you but a vibration within your own consciousness. To obey is to align your inner state with the truth you already know; to seek counsel is to consult the present I AM. The move from fear to faith is a shift of attention, a revision of what you assume about yourself and the world, until unity with the Word becomes your lived reality.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, declare I AM, and assume the inner counsel is present; ask, 'What is the word I must hear today?' and feel the answer as real, revising fear into obedience by aligning your thought with that inner instruction.
