Inner Inquiry of Babylon's Message

Neville's Inner Vision

Isaiah 39:3 becomes a mirror for your inner life. The prophet stands for your I AM awareness asking, What did these voices say, and whence did they come? Hezekiah answers from a place of perception, naming Babylon as the far country. In my reading, the visitors are the impressions that arise in consciousness from images and stories outside your present standpoint. They are not real external kingdoms; they are movements of your own awareness, drifting into the moment from a distant, dreamlike land. Your task is to listen without surrender, to note their origin without letting them alter your inner sovereignty. The question 'What said these men?' invites you to examine the content of your thoughts and their source, not to condemn them. The key is to realize that the 'far country unto me' is your imagination—events arising from your inner state, not from some outer time or place. By recognizing that you are the I AM, you can revise each impression by counter-stating: I am the ruler of this inner realm; the images from Babylon reveal my current state, not a future fate. Let the mind dwell in the quiet authority of creation, and watch outer appearances align with your inner discipline.
