Reclaiming Inner Treasures

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the event as a symbol: the outer raid is the mind’s current state, the gold and silver are wealth of thought, the vessels are faculties of expression, and the hostages are attachments and old limiting beliefs. In Neville fashion, the act of taking away and returning to Samaria signals that the kingdom you seek is not a distant place but a state you momentarily concede to fear or habit. The LORD’s house stands within your own consciousness as the inner temple. When you withdraw your attention from the external tomorrows and fix it on the I AM—the awareness that you are—the gold and vessels come to rest in your own treasury. The hostages do not vanish; they are reframed as portions of attention you temporarily surrender to old scripts, now replaced by the certainty that your real wealth is the eternal pattern of consciousness. By accepting that you own the temple's treasures here and now, you no longer chase external plunder but acknowledge the Kingdom of God within, where wealth, power, and provision are natural expressions of your indwelling I AM.
