Elijah's Inner Flight Revealed

Neville's Inner Vision

Elijah’s flight is not a mere journey but a shifting state of mind. When he ‘saw that,’ the fear, he rose to revise his inner stance rather than escape reality. Beersheba, belonging to Judah, is a consciousness doorway he travels to in imagination—a place where he leans on the I AM rather than on a servant or outer safeguard. Leaving the servant behind signals relinquishing dependency and turning inward to the one enduring power: awareness itself. In Neville’s terms, the fear that drove Elijah is a thought-form that can be displaced by the felt reality of the I AM. The outer movement mirrors an inner alignment: as you settle into Beersheba in your own mind, you discover safety is an inward state, not a geographic boundary. The true perseverance is the disciplined return to feeling the I AM as present here and now, dissolving the fear that compelled flight. Thus Elijah’s literal escape becomes a parable: revise the scene in consciousness, and you rewrite your relation to danger with the certainty that you inhabit the safe harbor of awareness.
