Inner Voice vs Self-Prophecy

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah warns you not to heed the words of those who prophesy from their own heart, for such visions are vanity and do not issue from the mouth of the LORD. In my teaching, every prophet within is a state of consciousness. When I entertain a vision born of the heart’s vanity, I am listening to a counterfeit oracle, a self-made script that promises much yet has no divine source. The I AM within—the God I am—speaks through quiet perception, steady presence, and the felt sense of rightness. If I wish to know truth, I must dis-identify with voices that rise from fear, pride, or egoic longing, and align with the one current that comes from my innermost self. I make the assumption that the interior voice directing my steps is the divine mouth; I revise any outer image until it blends with that inner clarity. The moment I refuse to follow self-originated prophecy, I awaken to a steadier, truer continuance of God’s will in me.
