Inner Tax and Kingdom Wealth

Neville's Inner Vision

Pharaoh here is the external decree you accept as sovereign over your wealth. Jehoiakim’s tax of the land mirrors the moment you surrender your inner treasures to a belief in lack or to a rule outside your own mind. In Neville's psychology, events reveal states of consciousness; the tax is the outward sign of a pattern that says, 'I am poor unless another governs the flow.' You are not bound to that belief; you are the I AM, the source of all supply. The remedy is to revise the premise: affirm that the higher law within you—the I AM—governs your wealth; imagine wealth flowing from your own inner sun, not from Pharaoh's decree. Feel the wealth as present, your mind as a bank that never closes. Then the land yields its riches to you not as tribute, but as the natural fruit of a rightly aligned belief in God. The verse invites a transformation from obedience to a higher obedience: obedience to the Kingdom of God within.
