Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 4:9-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 4 in context

Scripture Focus

9And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.

10Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

2 Kings 4:9-10

Biblical Context

Per the verse, a wife recognizes the holy man and proposes building a small chamber with a bed, table, stool, and candlestick so he may rest when he comes by. Her action signals hospitality and recognition of the divine moving through daily life.

Neville's Inner Vision

She names the man of God holy and makes space for the sacred to enter her everyday world. In Neville's psychology, the man is an inner state—an I AM idea making its passage through consciousness. The chamber is not a brick room but a deliberate inner arrangement: a wall you set in your mind to separate ordinary thinking from divine recognition. The bed represents rest for the mind; the table nourishment of the imagination; the stool a firm place for will; the candlestick illumination of insight. By inviting the holy man to turn in, she consents to a shift of perception, letting a higher state take root in her life. The husband’s agreement mirrors inner alignment; when the heart yields to the I AM’s presence, form follows thought. Your work is to notice which inner room you are building and to revise it so that the divine visitor can reside there, daily.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Create an inner chamber in your mind and invite the I AM to dwell there. Then assume the presence is already granted and feel it real by acting as if your day has already turned toward that holy rest.
