Scripture Focus

9And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, which were meet to be given her, out of the king's house: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the house of the women.
Esther 2:9

Biblical Context

Esther 2:9 portrays a maiden pleasing the king, receiving kindness, purification, and a place of favor. It shows favor arising as a state of consciousness and inner provision.

Neville's Inner Vision

Esther 2:9 speaks of a maiden who pleases the king and is granted kindness, purification, and a place of favor. In Neville's idiom, the maiden is a state of consciousness that you've become aware of, a self-possessed stillness that pleases the I AM and invites grace, cleansing, and elevation. When the king chooses Esther, it is your inner awareness rewarding consistent alignment, speedily provisioning you with what you need for purification and growth. The 'purification' items are the mental tools—clean beliefs, elevated thoughts, and clear vision—that attend a clarified heart. The seven maidens are the supportive faculties you enlist: imagination, faith, discernment, courage, gratitude, patience, and love. The 'best place' is a higher stance in consciousness where you see yourself rightly and act from assurance, not fear. Your inner court becomes a scene of grace, where your faculties stand ready to support your ascent. The movement is inward: favor is an inner decision you embody, not a distant event. By aligning with the I AM, these inner motions—purification and attendant helpers—move you to the best placement within the kingdom of your own mind.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume the state that the king's kindness has already been given to you. Feel the purification washing through your mind, and picture yourself seated in the best place of your inner house, attended by seven supportive faculties.
