Inner Reign and Fall

2 Kings 23:31-32 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 23 in context

Scripture Focus

31Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
2 Kings 23:31-32

Biblical Context

Jehoahaz was 23 when he began to reign in Jerusalem for three months, and he did evil in the sight of the LORD, following the pattern of his predecessors.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jehoahaz's brief reign is the outer echo of a consciousness that has slipped from the I AM. In this moment, the king stands for the state of awareness that governs your inner Jerusalem. When that state leans into old patterns—habits inherited from the past, a sense of separation, the sense that you are ruled by circumstance—what you call evil is simply the misalignment of the ruling consciousness with its true Source. The three months symbolize how quickly such a mistaken reign can rise and fall in the theatre of your mind. The mother and lineage in the text point to the persistent programs you inherited, not to some external decree. Yet the law remains: no outer outcome can prevail against the I AM you truly are; a consciousness aligned with fear or guilt goes no further than its own dream. The moment you realize that you are not the deed but the awareness that witnesses the deed, you displace the tyrant and invite the inner rule to change. Remember, imagination creates reality, and the inner state you attend to becomes your world.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM now rules within you as the king of your inner Jerusalem; revise the belief that you are ruled by old patterns by declaring, 'I am one with divine order,' and feel the corresponding calm rise in your chest as this new reign asserts itself. Feel it real by closing your eyes and letting the sensation of the I AM spread.
