Staggering Without Wine

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the imagery of Isaiah 29:9 speaks not of wine but of a mind intoxicated by fear and habit. The people stagger because their awareness is asleep to the I AM that you are. Stay yourselves, and wonder—hold your present state of consciousness and gaze within. Cry ye out, and cry: let an inner decree replace the old script. They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. Let this be understood as the inner condition: when you give your attention to appearances instead of the I AM, you move through life unsteadily. The prophecy becomes a promise when you realize reality follows your inner conviction. Truth is faithful to your imagination; your state of being precedes and creates your world. Return to the inner sanctuary: imagine, revise, and feel as if the new state is already real. Your accountability is to persist in consciousness, not to chase outward signs; the inner kingdom aligns with your every moment.
