Seventy-Year Inner Return

Neville's Inner Vision

The land's desolation is a state of consciousness, not a future fate. The seventy years mark an inner period during which the mind submits to habit or fear— Babylon—rather than to the I AM. This exile is a purification; the outer desolation reveals inner choices and provides the discipline needed to awaken to a new awareness. The 'nations' reflect outward conditions that appear when inner beliefs are aligned with limitation. By choosing the end in mind and living from the feeling of the fulfilled wish, the reader reorients to the inner kingdom; the seventy-year term becomes a symbolic school of return, not a fixed deadline. When you imagine yourself already in the promised land, the inner desert dissolves, and a fresh sense of wholeness arises. The path is an inward exodus: acknowledge the judgment, accept accountability, and turn toward the promise by the I AM, thereby transforming both mind and world.
