Egypt's Inner Reckoning

Neville's Inner Vision

Egypt in Isaiah's vision is a state of consciousness, not a geography. It is the mind clinging to external power and productivity as if life could be controlled apart from awareness. When the hand of the LORD shakes that belief, the mind falters and fear arises—the sense that no amount of 'work' can secure safety in that moment. The line that Egypt shall be like women, afraid, points to vulnerability when the separated self faces the living presence of reality. Yet the shaking is not merely punishment; it is a summons to return to the only stable fact: I AM, awareness, the to-be-identified center from which imagination creates. Judah's land becoming a terror to Egypt signals that a true inner state—a state of confident recognition of one's power—threatens the old fear. In Neville's terms, the events are internal shifts in consciousness. The outer scene yields to the inner decree as you revise your assumption about yourself. So, assume the feeling that the Lord's counsel governs you; feel it real, and your outer world will reflect this new, fearless self.
