The King Who Runs From Karma

2 Kings 25:4-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 25 in context

Scripture Focus

4And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
5And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
2 Kings 25:4-5

Biblical Context

The city is broken, and the king flees by night toward the plain; the pursuing army overtakes him, scattering his forces.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this moment the text invites you to see that the outer chase is only the reflection of an inner decision. The broken city is your present state where old habits have collapsed; the walls and the gate are the habits that divide one from a wider awareness. The king, that is your I AM, tries to slip away by the gate toward the plain—the ordinary field of thought—while the Chaldees encircle from without as the law of life, the universal response to your inner choice. When you run, you invite a pursuit that ends with your army scattered in the plains of Jericho. Yet the truth remains: you are the I AM, not the frightened king fleeing, and the only battle worth fighting is the revision of your inner assumption. By waking to the confidence that consciousness is king, you reverse the flight and invite order, accountability, and a return to the inner kingdom.

Practice This Now

Practice: close your eyes, feel the I AM as the inner king, declare, I am the king who governs this city of my mind. Then revise the scene by imagining the Chaldean army dissolving as you accept responsibility, and the plains becoming a tranquil field of awareness.
