The Inner Ark Presence

2 Samuel 6:10-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 6 in context

Scripture Focus

10So David would not remove the ark of the LORD unto him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.
11And the ark of the LORD continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obededom, and all his household.
12And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of David with gladness.
2 Samuel 6:10-12

Biblical Context

David hesitates to move the ark into Jerusalem; it stays with Obededom and blesses his household for three months. Then David brings the ark to the city with gladness.

Neville's Inner Vision

What you witness in 2 Samuel 6:10-12 is not a geographical drama but a shift in consciousness. The ark is the I AM, the Presence you carry within; its resting in Obededom's house shows that when you honor and dwell with the Presence in your inner sanctuary, blessing flows into every facet of life. The three months represents the inner period during which your state of awareness becomes saturated with Presence, so that what pertained to you is blessed in fullness. David's initial reluctance mirrors your old habit of moving the sacred out of reach, while the moment he brings the ark into the city of David with gladness marks the transition from fear to joyful trust—the inner realization that the Presence is already with you, right now. This is your invitation: stop chasing externals, assume the Presence as your own, and let the outward world reflect the inner harmony. The blessing seen in Obededom's household is the tangible proof that the inner state produces outer change; your life becomes bright wherever Presence is welcomed.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and place the ark in your inner temple. Feel the blessing ripple through your life as you repeat, 'The Presence is here, now, in me.'
