Gibeon Gate: Inner Camps Unite

2 Samuel 2:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 2 in context

Scripture Focus

12And Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
13And Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out, and met together by the pool of Gibeon: and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool.
2 Samuel 2:12-13

Biblical Context

Two rival factions—Abner's company with Ishbosheth and Joab's with David—travel to Gibeon and meet by the pool, each group seated on opposite sides.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, these verses reveal not a geopolitical scene but two states of your consciousness. Abner and Ishbosheth's camp embodies a stubborn allegiance to separation within the I AM; Joab and David's camp embodies another form of allegiance to a cause outside the unity of God. The pool of Gibeon stands at the threshold of choice, a place where the mind can observe its own divided moves and stillness. When the two sides sit facing away from each other, your awareness is aware of conflict yet holds the possibility of reconciliation. The meeting itself is a sign that the Kingdom of God is not distant but latent, waiting for you to assume its reign through inner alignment. To live this truth, you must abandon the belief that two kingdoms contend and instead assert one sovereign reality: you are the I AM, and unity already exists in your consciousness. Practice the revision by assuming that the entire scene is governed by harmonious oneness, and feel that unity as your current state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and revise the scene so the camps dissolve into one circle around the pool, unified in purpose; then declare 'I AM' and feel the kingdom within now.
