The Inner Crown of Peace

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville's ear, this is the psychology of consciousness speaking through prophecy. The child is not a distant ruler but the awakened state that is born in you, the new I AM arising in the center of your awareness. The government on his shoulder is the alignment of your thoughts with truth, a steady administration of peace that bears the weight of every moment you inhabit. Names like Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace are not titles to worship elsewhere but facets of your own inner being—distinct attributes of the one Life you are. When the verse says the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, it is your recognition that as you assume this state, its order expands, pushing out fear, doubt, and separation. The throne of David speaks of rightful authority in your mind, a practice of justice and discernment that governs reactions and choices. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this, meaning the creative power within you answers your assumption and makes peace real in experience.
