Clinging to the King Inside
2 Samuel 20:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 20 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Israelites chase after Sheba, while Judah clings to their king, David, from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner reading, Sheba's rebellion is the restless mind chasing distraction and outward show, while Judah's fidelity to their king is your I AM—the sovereign ruler within consciousness. The journey from Jordan to Jerusalem symbolizes moving from peripheral impulses toward the central sanctuary where true authority resides. When you envision clinging to that inner king, you dissolve outer unrest and align thoughts, feelings, and choices with awareness. This reveals that the Kingdom of God begins with awakened alignment, not external armies; one state of consciousness choosing fidelity to the I AM yields unity and clarity. The faithful posture of Judah becomes a daily invitation: remain with the inner ruler, and harmony and manifestation follow. The reference to Israel following a rebel illustrates belief in separation; choosing the king shows you are sovereign of your own inner realm.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume, I AM, I rule now. Feel the inner king’s loyalty settling your mind and revise every competing impulse to support that ruler.
