Dance of Presence and Sacrifice
2 Samuel 6:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Six steps for the ark are followed by a sacrificial act; then David dances before the LORD with all his might, symbolizing wholehearted worship. It links ceremonial acts with a living, joyful Presence.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the ark is the I AM, the indwelling Presence ready to be acknowledged. The six paces are not steps in a march but six turns of attention toward the sanctuary within, each move dissolving doubt and drawing you closer to awareness. The sacrifices are symbolic acts of letting go: surrendering old identifications—fear, lack, the need to prove yourself—so your mind becomes pure space for God’s activity. David’s dancing with all his might becomes a figurative image of your imagination as it comes alive with reality; when you feel the Presence fully, your body responds as worship in motion. The linen ephod represents your true attire—undressed by ego, clothed in light. The result is not a future event but a present shift: you inhabit the divine Presence here and now, and your life becomes the joyful expression of that state.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, image the ark within you, take six mindful breaths as steps toward stillness, release an old belief as a sacrifice, and then feel your entire being dance in the presence of God.
