Only One Inner God

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 20:3 speaks not of geography or history, but of the state of your consciousness. The ‘no other gods before me’ is a call to make the I AM the sole monarch of your inner kingdom. Every desire, fear, or opinion that pretends to rule is simply a counterfeit god, an image that you have allowed to sit on the throne of awareness. When you identify with a memory, a lack, or a future worry, you are placing another god before the one true Self. The moment you acknowledge that the I AM is the only power, the others dissolve into memories or habits that you can revise by assuming a new inner state. Put the I AM first, and all your outward conditions rearrange themselves to reflect that sovereign consciousness. The feeling is not achieved by strife but by recognition: you are the one who creates, not your creations who create you.
