Esther's Inner Adversary

Neville's Inner Vision

Esther 7:5-6 reveals that the so-called foe is not a distant person but a state of mind arising within consciousness. The king represents the awakeness of I AM, and Esther embodies the discernment that sees through appearances. When Esther says the adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman, she names the fear, pride, and doubt that have stirred within the heart. The drama shows that once the inner foe is identified, it loses power under the light of awareness; the fear that dares to presume in the heart cannot stand before the king and queen who are awareness itself. In your experience, the Haman is your own belief in separation, a thought-form that trembles when confronted by truth. By naming it as a mere state of consciousness, you do not condemn people but clear your own inner atmosphere. The result is judgment without cruelty: you stand in the I AM and witness the shift from bondage to liberty as the inner sight confirms what you already are. Practice: apply the assumption that the adversary is a mistaken belief, and feel the reality of your unity with divine awareness.
