When Defiance Meets Inner Justice

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your consciousness defiance arises as a thought or impulse against unity with the whole. The verse shows a higher inner state, Jonathan, arising in David’s lineage, and ending the defiant energy. In Neville terms, Israel represents your harmonized state of consciousness, the I AM that is awareness itself. When the mind entertains rebellion against this harmony, a decisive inner force arises to slay the defiant movement: not by external violence, but by retracting attention, renaming the impulse, and affirming that you are the one who commands your states of consciousness. The slain 'him' is the old self image or fear that would defy the truth of your oneness with I AM. The event is an inner movement: a shift from misalignment to rightful authority, from scattering thoughts to coherent unity. This is judgment and accountability: you are answerable only to the inner law you entertain. Embrace the practice of appointing Jonathan within, and let the inner governor purge defiance so Israel can stand intact in your mind.
