Pharaoh Within: Ezekiel 29:2

Neville's Inner Vision

Your outer ruler, Pharaoh, is not a man in a distant land but a state of consciousness clinging to power, fear, and dependence. Egypt is not a nation but the mass of beliefs, habits, and pressures that bind you to limitation. Ezekiel's commission to 'set thy face' against Pharaoh is a directive to refuse compliance with the dominant external picture and to turn your inner gaze toward a new possibility. When you prophesy against Egypt, you are pronouncing a decree within your own soul that the old tyranny has no jurisdiction in your inner kingdom. The act of prophesying is not predicting doom but declaring truth to yourself, aligning your thoughts with the I AM—your unwavering awareness. The 'face' you set is a firm, compassionate boundary between illusion and reality, a consent to live from consciousness rather than from fear. The moment you persist in this inner forecast, the external circumstances may appear to resist, but you have already created the seed of a new Egypt—one of freedom, abundance, and peace.
