Inner Obedience in Esther 3:3

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your being, the king and his gate are the outer authorities of your world. When the voice at the gate asks, 'Why transgressest thou the king's commandment?' you are invited to notice that the real commandment is the inner law your I AM recognizes. The act of not bowing to an external ordinance is a symbol of aligning with a higher decree—the inner sense of worth, unity, and destiny that God-who-I-am supports. The servants of the gate are your thoughts measuring you by appearances, insisting that you have transgressed. Yet in Neville's terms, you are not bound by these illusions; you are the consciousness that creates the scene. Obedience to the outer edict is seen as judgment; obedience to the inner decree is faithfulness to your true self. Judgment and accountability arise when you identify with transient laws rather than the timeless law of awareness. The scene invites you to revise your sense of 'transgression' as the mind's misinterpretation, not a real crime. The I AM remains unchanged, and your willingness to align with that higher decree dissolves the appearance of accusation.
