Inner Kindness Awakening
2 Samuel 9:2-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
David seeks to show kindness to Saul’s house. Ziba reveals Jonathan’s son Mephibosheth, crippled, is living in Lo-debar.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your consciousness, David stands as the I AM, the sovereign awareness that can extend kindness without motive. When the question arises, 'Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God unto him?' the inner self is invited to practice mercy over memory. Ziba’s report mirrors an old script—the inner Mephibosheth, Jonathan’s son, crippled and dwelling in Lo-debar, a desert of mind where nourishment seems scarce. Yet the king’s gaze remains fixed on possibility, not lack. The kindness of God is not withheld from the able alone; it awakens the latent lineage within you—the talents, desires, and aspirations you deemed crippled by fear, failure, or circumstance. As you call forth this forgotten heir from Lo-debar, you reverse the tale: grace restores, identity expands, and covenant loyalty in consciousness is renewed. You align with the I AM’s benevolent intention, and the entire inner kingdom moves toward wholeness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the posture of David within your mind. Say to the inner Mephibosheth that grace is your natural state and feel that once-lamed parts of you rise and move, nourished by the kindness you now extend.
