Renaming the Inner Crown
2 Kings 23:34 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Pharaohnechoh sets Eliakim as king in Josiah's place, renames him Jehoiakim, and takes Jehoahaz to Egypt where he dies.
Neville's Inner Vision
Pharaohnechoh's act is the outer curtain, but the scripture is telling you: your inner king is not named by others; authority is a state of consciousness you assume. The change of Eliakim's name and his installation signals a fresh ruling idea you permit to govern your days. Jehoiakim is the new inner designation you choose for yourself, while Jehoahaz's removal to Egypt marks the moment your past self is carried away by belief rather than actual divine rule. In your kingdom there is exile only when you forget that the I AM is king. The real exile is of the mind that identifies with labels and external power. Renew your covenant by claiming the I AM as your sole ruler, and the rest of your life will align with that inner decree. Your present experience—the events, the feelings, the outcomes—are simply the evidence of what you assumptively hold to be true. So choose a new name for your divinity and dwell in that certainty until it becomes your everyday life.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine the I AM seated on your inner throne, King over your days. Assume a fresh crown for your consciousness and feel that you are the ruler; repeat 'I am the king here' until this felt truth governs your actions.
