2 Kings 3:8

Biblical Context

The speaker asks which way to go up, and the guide answers that the ascent lies through the wilderness of Edom.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the question 'Which way shall we go up?' as the inquiry within your own I AM. The wilderness of Edom is not a distant land; it is a state of consciousness you must travel through to ascend in awareness. The answer—'the way through the wilderness'—invites you to quit seeking a shortcut and to move through limitation by becoming the very presence you seek. When you practice Neville’s method, the journey upward is the movement of consciousness through resistance into realization. You remain with the feeling of already being on the ascent: you persist, align your feelings with the end, and let the wilderness transform from obstacle into stepping-stones. Each rough patch becomes a sign that your mind is stretching toward a higher degree of awareness. The name Edom serves as a symbol for current mood or belief blocking ascent, not geography. By choosing to dwell in the certainty of your I AM, you authorize the path to take you upward, and the world rearranges to match your inner state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Assume the end and feel it now—see yourself standing atop the summit, walking through the Edom wilderness with ease. Persist in that feeling for several breaths until it becomes your habitual mood of ascent.
