Inner Dominion of David

Neville's Inner Vision

David is the state of dominion awakened in your consciousness. The victories over Hadarezer, the taking of chariots and horsemen, symbolize the inner conquest of restless thought and fear by aligning with the I AM that animates all being. The houghed horses are the restless drives you quiet, leaving a hundred chariots as ready instruments for service to Jerusalem, the center of your inner kingdom. The Syrians who come to aid represent appearances of challenge, yet the record says the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went, meaning when you stand in the unshakable awareness of I AM, circumstance serves your purpose. The golden shields and brass vessels are the tangible riches and tools you store in your inner temple; they become the means by which Solomon later built the great vessels of your imagination. The garrisons in Damascus are footholds of disciplined thought, anchoring your new state in the place where you dwell. In your imagination, these spoils are not apart from you but the visible signs of your inner compliance with divine law. Feel as if you are supported, provided for, and unassailable in your perceived world.
