Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 3:13-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 3 in context

Scripture Focus

13And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.

14And Elisha said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.

2 Kings 3:13-14

Biblical Context

Elisha refuses to align with the outward king’s fear and points to the inner allegiance that governs action. The true power arises when one honors the inner presence that stands before the I AM.

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 13–14 invites us to see that the scene is not about politics but about consciousness in action. Elisha, the awake witness, faces the outward king and asks in effect, What have I to do with this state unless it is joined by the faithful inner presence? He anchors in the I AM, declaring, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand. The three kings are inner pressures seeking to deliver you into fear or lack, but their power dissolves the moment you regard Jehoshaphat—the faithful inner state—as your true companionship. When that presence is acknowledged, you cease consulting outward authority and turn toward the Source. The outer crisis then shifts to reflect your inner alignment; the event bows to your I AM. Thus the verse teaches that your state of consciousness determines what occurs outside; cultivate the inner alignment, and the world must follow.

Practice This Now

Assume you are Elisha, the standing I AM within; declare, I will look only to the inner presence, not to outward fear. Then feel the assurance of Jehoshaphat’s faithful light guiding your next move.
