Inner Exodus of the I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

Interpret Exodus 14:8 as an inner drama played out in your own consciousness. Pharaoh represents the stubborn habit of bondage—the part of you that clings to limitation. When the I AM awakens and hardens that heart, it is not God punishing you, but your awareness fixing a state where the old self can no longer persist. The pursuit by Pharaoh is the return of old thought patterns after you decide to move forward; yet the exodus—the leaving of the land of bondage—is not a future event but a present completion of your inner world. The children of Israel going out with an high hand signals that you enter a victorious state, a consciousness that has already escaped limitation. In Neville's terms, you don’t seek freedom; you assume it. You place yourself in the victorious end, and the conditions conform to that assumption. Your outward life will reflect the grand exodus as your inner state holds steady in the I AM.
