God With Us Within

Neville's Inner Vision

These lines are not about nations so much as states of awareness. 'Associate yourselves' and 'take counsel together' are invitations to lean into a crowd of thoughts, to identify with outer voices. The real power lies in the simple assertion 'God is with us'—not as a political shield, but as an inner fact of your I AM, your timeless awareness. When you accept that, the pieces fall apart of their own accord: the old alliances, the anxious counsel, the speaking of many words. The fear that you will be broken in pieces is the ego’s warning that you are clinging to a separate self-image; relax into the truth that you are one with the God-state within. In that state, external plans that depend on fear or separation come to naught, for the creative energy is redirected to the present I AM. Imagination becomes the instrument: you decree and feel the reality of God’s presence here and now, and the world rearranges itself to fit that inner fact.
