The Inner King Over Us

Neville's Inner Vision

Samuel’s voice is the voice of truth within; the people’s demand for a king over them is a confession of a state of separation from the I AM. In this moment, they project authority into the outer world and imagine that security comes from a visible ruler rather than the inner sovereignty of consciousness. Neville's psychology would say they are identified with lack and the sense of being ruled, rather than recognizing that the kingdom exists wherever awareness reigns. When you insist on an outer king, you are choosing a form of imagination that binds you to appearances and delays the realization that you are the I AM, the ruler of your own experience. The remedy is to reverse the dream: accept the inner voice as the sole governor, imagine from the end where you stand sovereign under your own inner king, and let the outer forms dissolve in your awareness. The moment you return to the I AM and stop seeking control from without, the inner order reasserts itself and life aligns with the truth you choose to entertain.
