Inner Fire Of Isaiah 1:28-31

Neville's Inner Vision

In this inner reading, the 'destruction' is the collapse of any life built on separation from the I AM — the true divine awareness that you are. The 'transgressors' and 'sinners' represent states of consciousness that forget who you truly are and try to wield life through fear or pride. The 'oaks' and 'gardens' symbolize rituals, symbols, or objects you have mistaken for life, attachments to forms rather than the living Presence. When you identify with these forms, your inner water dries up; you become as an oak whose leaf fadeth, a garden without water. The 'strong' can be your intellect, will, or ego; the 'maker' is the self who believes it creates life apart from God. But the verse warns that such energy, when it remains in separation, will burn up—like tow catching a spark—until there is nothing to quench the blaze. The remedy and the return are in turning your attention to the I AM within: the awareness that never departs from you. When you assume that you are the living Word within, the external 'destruction' dissolves into peaceful alignment, and you experience true worship as felt reality inside.
