Inner Anointing, Outer Kingship
2 Kings 9:1-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Elisha sends a young prophet to Ramoth-gilead to anoint Jehu king by pouring oil on his head, signaling a shift in leadership under divine guidance.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine the scene as a map of your inner government. The box of oil is a symbol of concentrated attention—your I AM—poured upon a single, rightful state. Jehu represents a new state of kingship waiting to be realized in you, not merely a man among soldiers. Elisha is your higher self who brings this inner choice into the private chamber of consciousness. When the oil is poured and the word Thus saith the LORD comes, you hear, I have anointed thee king over Israel, which in your practice means: I am the ruler of my life by God within. The command to open the door and flee teaches you to proceed without needing the crowd’s consent or signs, trusting the inner movement. Thus the outward stroke of power begins as an inner conviction, a feeling of sovereignty that reshapes your actions. In Neville’s teaching, the entire event is a demonstration of your present state: assume the king within, and the outer world follows.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state 'I AM king over my life now.' Feel the oil of awareness pour over your head and affirm, 'Thus I am king in this moment.'
