Inner King, Quiet Anger Within
2 Samuel 13:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David, the king, hears troubling reports and becomes very angry.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the language of Neville, the characters of Scripture are cobblestones on the path of the soul. David is the king within you—the I AM—whose authority you trust to judge what you allow into your inner world. When the report comes, “these things,” your outer scenes, your inner senses stir—anger, judgment, the impulse to strike back. This is not a condemnation of a man, but a signal of misalignment between your inner ruler and the image you have of the world. The very fact that you hear of them and respond with heat proves you still divide yourself from the perfect state you seek. Therefore, do not try to quell the fire by denial; revise the scene until the king feels and acts as sovereign peace. Assume a state in which this report is seen, known, and resolved by the unassailable I AM within you. See the surrounding court calm, the subject matter clarified, and the justice you crave already established in your inner kingdom. Your anger dissolves as you acknowledge that you are the king who commands reality by belief, not by circumstance.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, revise the scene and declare, 'I am the calm, sovereign king; this report is resolved in me.' Feel the inner peace as real as breath for 60 seconds.
