Reigning Inside Naboth's Vineyard

Neville's Inner Vision

Jezebel's plot is the mind's temptation to rule by force, leaping from lack to possession by image alone. The vineyard represents a state you desire to embody, and Naboth's steadfast refusal mirrors the conscience within you that will not concede inner authority for convenience. Jezebel asks you to imagine you govern the kingdom of Israel by outward plot, urging quick possession while dismissing the inner law. When you respond by chasing an apparent ease or pretending abundance, you entertain counterfeit prosperity that cannot fulfill. The true governor is the I AM within you, the king who reigns over your entire inner world. The law is simple: outer schemes cannot override a state you have already assumed in consciousness. So revise the scene in your mind until your sense of possession feels natural and complete. Rest in the awareness that you already possess this vineyard as your inner state, and let the heart be merry from inner certainty, not from external manipulation.
