The Inner Headship of Life

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner life is not a crowd of separate impulses but a single living body under one governing consciousness. Colossians 1:18 declares that Christ is the head of the body—the church—and that He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that He might have preeminence in all things. This is not a distant dogma but a practical invitation: acknowledge the head and let every thought, feeling, and choice fall under that ruling awareness. The 'all things' refers to the arrangements of your life—health, prosperity, relationships, mood—ordered by the idea that governs them. When you affirm that the head is supreme, you align your inner faculties with one principle. Do not chase external signs; rest in the risen state that already dwells within you. If fear or lack arises, revise to: I AM the head over my body and life; in this moment the preeminent consciousness governs all. As you dwell there, the old patterns lose their grip, a sense of unity returns, and life expresses from the one source. This is the resurrection in action—your inner order becoming outer harmony.
