Turning Walls Within
Nehemiah 3:25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Nehemiah 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse names Palal overseeing a portion of the wall and a tower near the king's house by the prison court, followed by Pedaiah.
Neville's Inner Vision
Nehemiah 3:25 unveils not a mere architectural note but a map of the inner life. Palal is a state of consciousness placed 'over against the turning of the wall,' a stance that meets change by steady awareness rather than reaction. The 'tower which lieth out from the king's high house' signifies the rising center of your I AM, the kingly self, extending beyond old boundaries into a broader field of possibility. By the 'court of the prison' you face, without flinching, the belief in limitation; you observe where you have allowed confinement to govern you. The text also speaks of what comes after, 'After him Pedaiah,' suggesting a fresh act in response to inner alignment. When you dwell in Palal’s posture—watching the turning wall from the vantage point of the king within—you realize your imagination is the builder. Your inner walls are not fixed; they are turned by your decree, and the tower of awareness rises as you affirm that I AM governs your experience. In that truth, outward conditions bend to the determined imagination you inhabit.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume Palal’s stance before the turning wall; feel the inner tower of awareness rising from the king within you. Repeat softly: I AM the power that turns my walls to gateways.
