The Inner Battle Script

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville Goddard frame, the text is not about a king and soldiers but about the inner battlefield of consciousness. The letter is a mental script you plant in your own memory, the hottest battle a moment when you face a pressing impulse to compromise integrity for convenience. Uriah stands for the loyal, unflinching part of you your true self whose life is subordinate to the purpose you decree for yourself. When Joab observed the city and placed Uriah where valiant men are, that is your habit of aligning your noble self with a stronger, more successful image that actually suppresses your integrity. The outcome the death of Uriah and casualties among David's servants reflects the consequences of obeying a plan not born of the I AM. You do not change the outside world by fighting the world, but by changing your inner assumption about what is possible; the event is the body of belief obeying a command you previously accepted. The remedy is to revise the script: claim that the I AM now places your noblest self in the forefront of the battle, while nonessential desires retire. The kingdom of God arises when you align every decision with justice within.
