Inner Awe of God Within

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner theatre of Neville Goddard's teaching, the kingdoms represent states of mind unsettled by doubt. The LORD is the I AM presence within you, the living awareness that animates imagination. When you affirm that the I AM fights your battles—your higher self directing outcomes—the effect is an 'awe' or fear that others sense: not punishment, but a recognition of divine power acting from within. The enemies of Israel symbolize your own limiting habits, fears, and attachments. As you yield to the I AM and let imagination work through you, those inner enemies are routed, and a holy order arises in your life. The external world appears to bow to the internal alignment you have established. This is not conquest by force but the realization that consciousness itself rearranges conditions. The verse thus invites you to cultivate the inner certainty that the I AM is at work, and to know that imagination creates reality from the inside out.
