Birth Of Inner Solomon
2 Samuel 12:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David comforts Bathsheba and they bear Solomon; the Lord loves him.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider that David's act of comforting Bathsheba is not a historical event, but an inner stance. In Neville's language: The mind, represented by David, chooses to console the wounded feminine principle within—Bathsheba—thus yielding harmony. When the inner wife and mother principle aligns with comfort, a new inner ruler is born: Solomon, the embodiment of wisdom, order, and right governance. The verse declares that the Lord loves this newborn 'Solomon'—a sign that your own inner kingdom delights in such alignment. In this sense, every act of true consolation in consciousness precipitates a birth in the spiritual womb of your nature; the 'king' you awaken is a state of consciousness, a mode of feeling loved, wise, and at peace. You are not seeking favor from without; you are acknowledging the I AM's ruling presence within, which blesses the birth of your inner Solomon. The more you hold to the assumption that you are beloved by God and that your inner king is being born, the more your outer life will reflect orderly kingship and grace.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly and imagine comforting the wounded inner self; assume the state 'I am beloved by God' and feel it real. Visualize a wise inner king seated on a throne in your mind, and let the Lord's love rest upon him.
