Inner Fire Of Isaiah 47:14

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold, the line invites you to look within. The 'they' are not separate foes but your changing states of consciousness—doubt, pride, fear—that have dried and grown brittle. The fire that burns them is your awakened awareness—the I AM you claim in the present. When you truly identify with that I AM, outer conditions lose their power to deliver you; what remains is the ash of old habits and beliefs you no longer need. The fire refines, not torments; the sense of judgment you fear outwardly is the inward correction of a state that has outgrown itself. There will be 'no coal to warm by' and 'no fire to sit before' because you cease leaning on past props and external comforts. Instead you turn to the inner warmth of consciousness itself. Your imagination becomes the cleansing flame through which you discover you are both the heat and the hearth—the place of warmth, change, and renewal.
