Horeb Within: Inner Covenant Fire

Neville's Inner Vision

View Horeb as the furnace of your own consciousness. When you provoke the LORD, it is not an external punishment but the outcome of a state of mind that believes itself separate from the I AM. Anger and the fear of destruction arise from resisting the divine flow within. The remedy is to reclaim the covenant by imagining yourself already obedient, already aligned with the Commandments written on your heart. See the wandering in anger as a misalignment in inner state; the true Israel is the I AM-aware you who chooses faithfulness over fear. In this light, the 'destruction' is the old self dissolving as you reestablish relationship with God within. The moment you assume the feeling of being kept by the Law and loved unconditionally, you enter a steady, blessed inner order where judgment gives way to compassionate discipline and covenant loyalty becomes a living present reality.
