Isaiah 37:38 Inner Kingdom Shift

Isaiah 37:38 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 37 in context

Scripture Focus

38And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
Isaiah 37:38

Biblical Context

In Isaiah 37:38, Sennacherib is slain by his sons while he worships in Nisroch's house, and Esarhaddon rises to the throne.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the Neville reader, the story is not about a far-off king, but about states of consciousness. Sennacherib—the king of outward power—worships in Nisroch's house, symbol of a mind clinging to idols and external rituals. His death by his own sons embodies the crumbling of an old ruling idea, the belief that power comes from ritual or lineage. The two princes, Adrammelech and Sharezer, reveal how the mind's faculties may rise against a worn rule, not with compassion but with the necessity of a new ruling state. Esarhaddon's ascent is the inward shift: a newer, truer authority takes the throne of your awareness. This is the inner dynastic change your own heart can witness when you stop fearing the loss of the old king and begin recognizing the I AM as the sole sovereign. Let your attention retire from Nisroch's idol and invite the king of your present I AM to reign. The fall of the old king becomes proof that your mind can reinvent itself, when you accept a higher state and name it.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the I AM as the ruling king of your mind; revise the old idol by declaring, 'From this moment I reign in my thought.' Feel the quiet certainty of the new throne.
