Elijah's Inner Search Reframed

Neville's Inner Vision

Elijah’s cry is a reflection of a minefield of thoughts within your own consciousness. The fear of being delivered into the hand of Ahab represents a belief that external conditions—kingdoms, rulers, and witnesses—govern your life. In Neville’s terms, the “search” is the persistent urge of appearances to prove lack or danger. The line about there being no nation or kingdom whither he has not been sent to seek thee is a cue that all such pursuit originates in mind, not in geography. When you feel pursued by circumstances, you are invited to return to your true address—the I AM within. Rest in the conviction that you are not within the jurisdiction of fear or limitation, for the living consciousness within you holds the sovereign power. The outer world can search all it wishes, but its searches cannot locate the reality of your inner kingdom. Live from that assurance, and the impression of being hunted dissolves as you acknowledge the I AM as your permanent shelter and ruler.
