Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner geography of the I AM, the fourteenth year marks a long season when thoughts and fears march under a kingly order. The 'kings with him' are my predominant states of consciousness; their campaign smites the giants of old belief—the Rephaims, the Zuzims, the Emims—until the inner land is cleared. The terrain of Seir, Elparan, and the wilderness is the desert of habit where I once dwelt in limitation. When I return to Enmishpat, the seat of inner judgment, I am declaring that the Amalekites and Amorites of memory have been vanquished by the authority I now exercise. The battle is not waged upon others but within my I AM: I choose which rulers have sway, and I dethrone every fear by recognizing that God—my awareness—counts the territory and grants victory. This is the kingdom of God breaking into the inner world, a discipline of consciousness where judgment becomes clarity and power becomes rest. I am the mount Seir, and the ascent is the quiet claim that I am unbound by the old maps of limitation.
