Inner Greed, Outer Consequences
2 Kings 5:21-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Gehazi pursues wealth by deception after Naaman's generosity. His lie leads to concealment and gifting of spoil, exposing the danger of greed and the call to truth.
Neville's Inner Vision
Notice Gehazi as an inner state within your mind, the part that desires to secure abundance by clever means rather than trust. When he runs after Naaman, the scene is a rehearsal of a split mind—one foot in service, one in self-interest. In Neville's terms, this is a belief that wealth must be wrested, not recognized as already present in your I AM. The two talents and two garments become symbols of a hidden bargain you try to strike with life, a compact made with fear rather than faith. Naaman’s gracious response and Gehazi’s duplicity reveal how consciousness mirrors its expectations: the moment you pretend to give while secretly taking, you invite a tower of results that must be brought home. The healing is not in the loot but in the alignment of your will with truth—acknowledging that you are the same I AM who already provides. When you release the fear of shortage, you stop chasing appearances and allow inner wealth to appear as outward provision, without guilt or manipulation.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, place a hand on your chest, and declare, 'I am the I AM; wealth and integrity flow through me now.' Feel the truth of it until it displaces the old urge to seize or manipulate gain.
