Idols Within and The Inner King

Neville's Inner Vision

To the Neville reader, this line is not about geography but about a state of consciousness that has chosen external power over inner life. Walking in the ways of the kings of Israel represents the habit of letting tradition and image govern your choices, rather than the I AM that animates your being. The molten images for Baalim are not metal but beliefs—images you worship as if they grant life, status, or security. When you identify with such images, you concede sovereignty to form, ritual, or name outside your inner awareness. The I AM, the true king, remains silent behind every scene, awaiting your assumption of power. Neville's remedy is practical: refuse to let appearances set your reality. Assume a new state now—where you are the sovereign, guided by the living presence within. Rehearse the feeling that the I AM is the source and not the idol. As you embody that consciousness, the external idol loses its grip, and your life begins to move in harmony with the inner king.
