Inner Coalition Realities

Neville's Inner Vision

Where you see the Ammonite coalition and its hirelings, imagine inner beliefs and doubts gathering behind you, the 'stank before David' signifying fear exposed to the light of consciousness. The verse points more to inner sovereignty than to outward conquest: David is the I AM, awareness itself. When he hears of the coalition, the action is not impulsive but a deliberate assertion of inner authority—sending Joab and the host of mighty men—the faculties of discipline, courage, and strategy within us. Providence reveals itself as the outer crisis mirrors an inner decree awaiting birth. By trusting the inner king's authority, the mind reorganizes its weather; alliances formed in fear recede as the inner light asserts itself. The powers of awareness become instruments of peace; the perceived threat becomes a signal to revise the inner script. In this view, we live as if the decree is already fulfilled, and the world aligns with that inner reality.
