Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 6:5-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 6 in context

Scripture Focus

5But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.

6And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.

7Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.

2 Kings 6:5-7

Biblical Context

An axe head falls into water and is lost as borrowed property; the prophet asks where it fell, and restoration comes when it is recovered by casting in a stick and drawing it back to hand.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's psychology, the axe head is a resource you believed was not yours but borrowed. The water is your subconscious depth where belief in lack resides. The question 'Where fell it?' invites you to locate the exact point in consciousness where ownership was surrendered. Casting a stick into the deep is an act of definite assumption — a clear, measured I AM statement that you will possess this resource now. The iron swimming upward is your inner truth aligning with divine awareness; the apparent loss dissolves as your sense of self reorders itself around the fact that I AM is the source of all supply. When you reach out and take it, you demonstrate that nothing has truly been lost, only forgotten in a moment of doubt. By resting in the I AM and practicing the revision of your state, you awaken to full possession and grace moving through your life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, identify a resource you feel is borrowed, declare 'I am now the owner of this,' and imagine a stick cast into your subconscious causing the resource to swim back to your hand.
