Inner Breakthrough at Baalperazim

2 Samuel 5:20-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 5 in context

Scripture Focus

20And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim.
21And there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.
2 Samuel 5:20-21

Biblical Context

David defeats his enemies at Baalperazim, naming the LORD's sudden breakthrough; there, the enemies' images are burned.

Neville's Inner Vision

Here, the field is your inner terrain. Baalperazim is the place where your awareness witnesses the breach of waters—the swift, inundating moving of God through your mind. The enemies are recognitions of limitation—fear, doubt, habit—things you mistakenly call out there. When David says the LORD hath broken forth before me, he names the I AM as the agent of conspicuous transformation within. The breach of waters signifies a sudden cleansing in consciousness, a moment when the old structures crumble and leave you exposed to radiant liberty. The act of burning their images is the clearing of idolatries—mental pictures you have worshipped instead of the living presence. In this reading, victory is not a conquest of persons but a revision of the inner world where your images lose their power and disappear. As you dwell in this inner Baalperazim, you call the place your own firm foundation where Providence unfolds and you awaken to salvation right now, not later.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are already delivered. In your mind, imagine a flood breaking forth and washing away every inner enemy and idol, then burn the mental images with the feeling that God is I AM present now.
