Valley, Crown, and I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this scene the valley is your own consciousness in a low place. The fleeing army mirrors thoughts that run from the I AM, the inner sense of being rightful ruler. Saul and his sons dead symbolize the old ego dissolved when attention leaves the inner throne; the abandoned cities become spaces where doubt can lodge. When the Philistines dwell in them, you witness how external conditions mimic an internal neglect—the outer world reflects the belief that you have lost your sovereignty. The morrow's stripping is the visible consequence of an inner assumption left unchecked; Mount Gilboa represents a higher vantage where you behold the results of mood and habit. Yet the events are not punishment but invitation: the Kingdom of God is within, waiting to be claimed by returning to the I AM as your one reality. The tragedy exposes the need for a renewed assumption: there is no loss in the true nature of being; there is only the forgotten act of choosing to reign. Decide now to reimagine this kingdom as whole, ordered, and secure, and watch your outer life follow.
