Inner Kings vs False Calves

Neville's Inner Vision

In this scene you are invited to see beyond history into your own mind. The “vain men” are states of consciousness that puff themselves up in opposition to your I AM. The “kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David” is the inner government of your consciousness—the I AM ruling as king. The golden calves Jeroboam gave the people symbolize external powers and alluring idols that pretend to govern you, yet are only projections of fear. Rehoboam’s youth and tenderness reflect moments when you are tempted to rely on sentiment or outward appearances rather than the established throne within. To withstand the forces arrayed against the inner kingdom, you do not battle persons or circumstances; you revise your assumption to acknowledge the I AM as sovereign. Declare, “I am the king now; the kingdom of God rests within me.” Feel the inner governance solidify, and watch the outer agitation soften as true worship—alignment with the I AM—takes its rightful place on the throne of your mind.
