Purifying the Inner Kingdom

2 Samuel 12:31 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 12 in context

Scripture Focus

31And he brought forth the people that were therein, and put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brick-kiln: and thus did he unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned unto Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 12:31

Biblical Context

The king subjects the Ammonites to harsh punishment with iron tools. Afterward, David and the people return to Jerusalem.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the inner page you read, the outer violence is not a history lesson but a map of your own inner weather. The king in the story is your current state of judgment—the I AM you have identified with as ruler of conditions. The people are the many faculties of your mind, each reacting to a story you tell about others and yourself. The tools—saws, harrows of iron, axes of iron, and the brick-kiln—mark the steps by which you are invited to purify thought: cut away false narratives, grind down fixed habits, and heat conviction until only essential truth remains. As you allow this inner furnace to burn, the stubborn Ammon within you is transformed through awareness, not punished by someone else. When the process completes, you return to Jerusalem—the inner sanctuary of peace where the I AM consciousness resides and where you realize you are the creator of your world. This is not punishment in the outer sense but the revelation that your life re-aligns with the king you have become: I AM, I create, I renew.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume the I AM as king of your inner city, and picture the challenged thoughts passing through the furnace of purification. Feel the peace of Jerusalem returning as your inner climate aligns with imagination and I AM.
