The Inner Hospitality Test

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe the outer scene as a mirror of your inner state. The king's gilded invitation, the promise of reward, and the ready hospitality symbolize your mind's tendency to seek security in form. The man of God stands in the I AM, untouched by the promise of half a king's house, because his awareness is not for sale. The refusal to eat or drink in that place is not stubbornness but a holy boundary - a decision to keep the sacred mission pure by not mixing with the vibration of appetite, status, or material gain. In Neville's terms, the king and his offer are events in your own dream - alterable by a single assumption. To embody this text is to assume the state that you cannot be bought by appearances; your true nourishment comes from obedience to the inner command. When you align with the I AM, the outer scene loses its grip; the reward loses its power to move you, and you remain free to fulfill your divine purpose.
