Inside The King's Table

2 Samuel 9:11-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Samuel 9 in context

Scripture Focus

11Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king hath commanded his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.
12And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Micha. And all that dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants unto Mephibosheth.
13So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king's table; and was lame on both his feet.
2 Samuel 9:11-13

Biblical Context

David declares Mephibosheth to eat at the king's table as one of the king's sons, and Mephibosheth, though lame, dwells in Jerusalem, supported by grace and kinship.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, this is a vivid parable of your inner state. The king represents your I AM, the always-present awareness that assigns value. Ziba’s account is the outward narrative of your mind’s circumstances, while Mephibosheth stands for a part of you that has felt limited or crippled by past beliefs. The king’s decree—he shall eat at my table as one of the king’s sons—announces that your inner self is now given full status, nourishment, and belonging within the Self. The lad Micha signals the multiplying effect of this shift, and the line about all dwelling in Ziba’s house becoming servants to Mephibosheth shows how surrounding thoughts rearrange to serve the new state. Dwelling in Jerusalem at the king’s table marks integration: your sense of separation dissolves into vivid communion with the Source. The message is clear: grace and dignity are your baseline; the apparent limitations are invited to sit at the feast and vanish in the light of aware presence. Confirmation becomes inner reality; you are indeed the feast-furnished you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine entering the king’s hall, finding a seat at the table, and hearing the ruler declare you as a son. In that moment, affirm, 'I am the beloved at the king's table,' and feel the fullness of nourishment and belonging rise within.
