Read 1 Samuel 14 in context

Scripture Focus

6And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.

7And his armourbearer said unto him, Do all that is in thine heart: turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.

1 Samuel 14:6-7

Biblical Context

Jonathan proposes going to the garrison of the uncircumcised, trusting the LORD can save by many or by few, and his armor-bearer affirms loyalty to his heart.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture your own I AM as Jonathan, ready to cross into the unknown when the inner call sounds. The garrison is not a fortress of stone but a fortress of fear and limitation inside you. The verse teaches that there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few, meaning the power of God within your consciousness is not limited by circumstances. When you move with that inner conviction, the armor-bearer responds from your heart: he is the faithful part of you that says I am with you according to your heart. The scene becomes a drama of your own state of consciousness: stepping toward the fear with the certainty that your assumption creates. Your ally is your inner alignment, your willingness to act on a truth you hold in heart and imagination. In Neville's terms, the Lord works for you when you hold a clear vision and a committed feeling that you and the Presence are one, and your courage becomes the channel through which outcomes appear.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and reaffirm I am one with the Presence; imagine stepping toward your inner garrison with confidence, and act on the impulse that arises from that conviction.
