Hardened Heart, Inner Sovereignty

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville’s mind, the text speaks not of history alone but of your inner state. Pharaoh represents a fixed, stubborn belief refusing liberation; when the heart hardens, you feel pulled toward repeating old patterns. The blessing hidden in the clause 'that he shall follow after them' is the sign that the mind, under a certain grasping sense of self, is driven to chase after appearances rather than rest in the I AM. Yet the phrase 'I will be honoured upon Pharaoh' declares the inner sovereign in you: when you allow your I AM awareness to govern, the drama unfurls to demonstrate that the power behind appearances is not external but within. The declaration 'that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD' becomes the moment of inner recognition: as your alignment with the I AM grows, the outer scene confirms the truth, dissolving the old pattern. The entire sequence is your inner act of awakening: the moment you stop resisting, the hardened belief yields, and the self-revealing I AM stands in triumph, proving to you that your world is obedient to your inner state.
