Inner Hunger and Providence

2 Kings 6:26-29 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 6 in context

Scripture Focus

26And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman unto him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.
27And he said, If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?
28And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.
29So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.
2 Kings 6:26-29

Biblical Context

During a famine, a desperate woman pleads with the king, and another woman has eaten her son, revealing extreme scarcity and human suffering.

Neville's Inner Vision

The famine on the wall is a symbol of lack within your own consciousness. The king represents the I AM—the awake, deciding awareness that can determine what reality feeds upon. The two women reflect inner states contending for control: one crying for relief, the other clinging to a grim routine of pain. When the question is asked, “If the LORD do not help thee…,” it reveals the mind’s habit of seeking help outside itself, rather than recognizing that true assistance flows from the sole awareness you are. Cannibalism, in this reading, underscores how beliefs about scarcity are consumed until nothing remains but the insight that you are the authority of your state. Providence appears as the natural movement of consciousness when you cease identifying with lack and affirm that you are the I AM. If you claim, even now, “I am provided,” the outer crisis can dissolve as the inner alignment restores your abundance. The wall becomes a doorway when you realize you are not at the mercy of famine but are its creator through awareness.

Practice This Now

Practice: Assume the feeling of abundance by saying, "I AM PROVIDED NOW" as if it is already true, and dwell in the sensation of that assurance in your chest for about a minute, revising any memory of lack as you continue.
