Inner David, Outer Salvation

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider this: the Philistine is any giant fear that stands against your true self. David is the I AM within you, the bold act of faith that risked all for life. When you 'put your life in his hand,' you yield your small, anxious ego to the higher consciousness that knows salvation is present wherever awareness is kept vigilant and alive. The 'great salvation for all Israel' is the inner demonstration of power—your awareness waking to its own capacity to heal, to deliver, to restore harmony in body, mind, and circumstance. You ‘saw it, and didst rejoice’ when you perceived this inner victory; gratitude confirms the truth that the kingdom is already within and that God wrought salvation through your awakened sense of being. The admonition not to slay David without a cause becomes a reminder: guard innocence in your thoughts and actions, refuse to condemn or destroy the genuine impulse for life that seeks expression. Now, apply this by assuming the feeling of a secure, just, and merciful inner state, and watch as the outer scene bows to your inner country.
