Valley of Salt Victory

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this story, the Edomites are the stubborn states of mind you carry—doubt, fear, old loyalties—that would imprison your next move. The valley of salt is your inner clearing, where judgment softens and true choice arises. Abishai’s victory is the moment you dissolve those inner foes, not by force of another's hands but by a revised state of consciousness. To plant garrisons in Edom is to establish new, steady beliefs in those regions of the self—the persistent assumptions that support your path. The Edomites becoming David’s servants means these former obstacles now serve your reigning I AM, your dominant assumption of already possessing the good you seek. And the line that the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went becomes your reminder: when you dwell in a fixed awareness of the end, the inner governor maintains your outward steps. Your world follows the inner decree you hold as true.
