Inner Valley Renewal

Neville's Inner Vision

In this verse the outer foes reappear not in a new place but in the same inner valley. This is the mind reminding you that until you shift your state of consciousness, old fears and judgments will reemerge as if they were real. The valley is your current imagination, the space where you believe things are happening to you. The Philistines are the habits of fear, the sense of threat, the 'I cannot' that repeats while you identify with the old self. Your real power lies in the I AM, the present awareness that can revise the scene. When you refuse to argue with appearances and instead assume the feeling of the fulfilled state—peace, triumph, safety—you shift the inner weather. The outer 'spread' is the echo of your inner assumption. God’s presence within the valley remains unchanged; reassert it, and the valley becomes a doorway to the kingdom rather than a battlefield.
