Inner Courage, Outer Deeds

Neville's Inner Vision

Be of good courage here is not merely a command to feel brave in future battles; it is a shift in your state of consciousness. The phrase 'let us play the men' invites you to inhabit the inner armor of resolve, to stand as the I AM at the center of your life and declare responsibility for your inner cities. The 'cities of our God' are your sacred states—peace, integrity, love, purpose—defended by a disciplined imagination. When you say, the LORD do that which seemeth him good, you yield to the divine rhythm and trust that imagination is the tool through which God acts. Courage then becomes a steady assumption that you already are the man who acts with decisiveness for the good of your people. External events begin to mirror this inner alignment, not by force but by the law that your inner scene governs what appears. So you are invited to reside in sovereign assurance, knowing that the miracle is born in your consciousness and played out on the stage of your life as manifest action.
