The Inner Banner Of Victory

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, Exodus 17:15 is about the altar as an inner structure, not a stone. Moses, the symbol of your higher self, names the victory Jehovah-Nissi—the Lord my banner—announcing that your awareness itself presides over every scene. The banner you lift is the state of consciousness you inhabit and rehearse in imagination until it feels real. When you declare that the I AM is your banner, you stop negotiating with fear and begin moving from victory in mind to victory in form. The battle with Amalek stands for recurring thoughts of lack or resistance; by lifting the banner you align your inner movements so that faith, gratitude, and creative power fuse into fact. True worship, then, is loyalty to a fixed inner state, not external ritual. If you keep returning to the banner, the implied covenant is kept: your life follows the consciousness you insist upon.
