Inner Chairs, True I AM
Matthew 23:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
These verses condemn the ego's craving for public honors, positions, and titles. They point to humility as the true disposition before God.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this brief snapshot, the craving for upper rooms, chief seats, and greetings is not a social rule but a state of consciousness. Neville teaches that to seek such outward honor is to mistake a label for reality, a separation from the I AM that is always present. The remedy is not to resist crowds but to inhabit the awareness behind them: you are the I AM, the living presence that animates every room. When you identify with a role like Rabbi, you submit your power to appearances; when you revise that identity, you claim the eternal throne within. Practice is simple: imagine you are already crowned by your inner self, not by applause or seat positions. Let the outer signs fade as the inner consciousness asserts its permanent worth. The inner kingdom then becomes the sole throne worth occupying, and through that shift, the world’s labels lose their grip on you.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: In a moment of stillness, say I AM is the ruler of this life and revise the scene to show you seated in the inner throne; feel the room fade while you stand in the certainty of awareness.
