Inner Judgment of Jezebel

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the scene is a parable of inner life. Jezebel and Ahab symbolize personal tendencies: manipulation, control, fear, and self-righteousness. The LORD's words are not external punishment but the I AM's verdict written on your inner screen: when you insist on domination, your outer world will echo that impulse through natural forces—the dogs at the wall and the fowls in the field are your own mental images acting out. The wall marks the boundary where inner intention meets outer sensation. If you dwell in judgment rather than mercy, you invite that judgment to roam your life, in health, reputation, and relationships. Yet the message is not cruelty but continuity of divine law: you can revise by turning from vengeance toward justice within. Treat every impulse of spite or control as a signal that you have forgotten your true I AM. In imagination, declare that the inner law of peace and justice is already fulfilled in you, and allow the outer appearances to respond to that truth. The prophecy becomes a map of what you are imagining yourself to be.
