Boils Reveal Inner Power

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 9:11 offers a quiet indictment of outer power. The magicians—those who trust clever acts, formulas, and appearances—cannot stand before Moses because boils lay hold on them. They symbolize the mind clinging to externals. In Neville’s terms, the outer Egypt is your life-world, and the inner Moses is the I AM, the awareness that creates. The boils reveal the inner condition: fear, pride, reliance on technique rather than truth. When you insist on power through tricks of the mind, the I AM exposes the insufficiency by letting the outer scene falter. The healing is not in the plague’s ending but in recognizing that your assumed power is only as solid as the state you entertain. When you shift from chasing power ‘out there’ to inhabiting the one, sovereign state, the scene must rearrange to reflect that. So you enter the inner court where the I AM speaks, and the appearance of conflict dissolves into peaceful certainty.
