Inner Palaces and Judgment

Neville's Inner Vision

Amos speaks as a map of the inner life. What you see on the outward stage—executives, palaces, wealth stored by violence—is but the image your mind projects. In Neville's reading, the palaces are states of consciousness you have built that justify domination. The Lord God is the I AM looking on from within, not a distant judge; when you forget this, you cultivate a belief in separation, cultivate tumults and oppression in your inner streets, until an adversary encircles your land. But the moment you refuse the fantasy of coercion and awaken to right action as your natural law, the siege dissolves. The prophecy promises not punishment from outside, but correction of inner habit: you recognize that violence and robbery are misalignments, not realities. When you revise, you hear the call to assemble within, to stand on your mental mountains and behold the upheavals with calm, declaring your life governed by justice and right order. As you feel this real, the outer power wanes, and your palaces are spoiled only in the sense that they are renewed into true abundance rooted in integrity.
