Inner Covenant Violation

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider 2 Kings 21:2 as a mirror for the mind. The king acts evil by following the abominations of the heathen—those 'other nations' represent states of consciousness that forget the I AM within. The Lord casting them out before Israel signifies that in the mind there is a separation: awareness remains, and the old idolatries can be expelled when seen for what they are. The scene asks you to notice that each so-called external abomination begins as a thought, a picture, or an attachment in the imagination. Your true nature, the I AM, is the governing awareness; when you identify with the heathen you depart from the covenant of God in you. The remedy, then, is to revise the state by assuming you are already obedient to the divine law. Dwell in the feeling-it-real that you are aligned with holiness, not needing idols, no longer seeking to imitate the world. In that inner shift, the outward condition follows; your inner kingdom is restored by your choice of consciousness.
