Inner Pursuit of David's Path

2 Samuel 20:11-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 20 in context

Scripture Focus

11And one of Joab's men stood by him, and said, He that favoureth Joab, and he that is for David, let him go after Joab.
12And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he removed Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a cloth upon him, when he saw that every one that came by him stood still.
13When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.
2 Samuel 20:11-13

Biblical Context

Joab’s messenger provokes the crowd to pursue, and loyalties to Joab or David are rallied. Amasa lies slain on the highway and is moved to the field; once the road is cleared, the army presses on after Sheba the son of Bichri.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your I AM stands as the sole sovereign of your inner realm. The scene—loyalists to Joab or David, Amasa’s death, the highway cleared for pursuit—is a vivid diagram of inner choice and movement. The highway is your outward flow of life; Amasa’s demise signals the ending of an old state of consciousness that would hinder your right ordering. The act of moving him aside and covering him is symbolic of laying to rest a former obstructive attitude, making room for action aligned with the higher order. As the army resumes its march toward Sheba, so your consciousness advances toward the true aim: the Kingdom of God established within you. The outer event becomes a faithful mirror of inner obedience to righteousness and justice. This is not mere history but a practical demonstration: when you align with the higher self, the inner kingdom governs your experiences and the outer world follows in kind.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and declare: I am the I AM, ruler of my inner realm; I now remove every obstacle from the highway of my mind and pursue the inner goal with certainty. See Amasa moved aside, the road clear, and the inner army marching smoothly toward the true objective.
