Famine to Abundance: Inner Dispatch

2 Kings 7:12-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 7 in context

Scripture Focus

12And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city.
13And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see.
14They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
2 Kings 7:12-15

Biblical Context

The king learns the Syrians fled due to hunger, scouts confirm their retreat, and the road shows garments and vessels left in haste—signs of deliverance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the narrative, the king's midnight council mirrors the mind in scarcity. The Syrians are not distant enemies but beliefs of lack that flee when confronted by a stronger I AM. The rumor of hunger triggers a plan to observe, yet true change begins not with more food but with a changed state. When you decide, 'I am well supplied now,' you release the inner scouts—awareness, imagination, and feeling—that go out to confirm your assumption. The camp outside the city is your outer world, and the field where they hide is your hidden dispositions; their flight reveals that your former fear was a dream born of identification with lack. The garments and vessels cast along the Jordan are outward symbols of an inward abundance, left behind by the old consciousness as you walk in the victorious current of the new state. Providence, in Neville’s sense, is the movement of consciousness toward realization. The king’s return with news is your own inner confirmation that the new state is real, everywhere the eye turns.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, declare 'I am abundance now' as your I AM; feel it saturate your senses for a few minutes, and then observe one outward sign that confirms the shift today.
