Inner Word Amid the Siege

Neville's Inner Vision

When the word comes unto you now, recognize that you are the I AM, the eternal inner city in that very moment, not the city under siege. The Babylonian armies and the threats outside are only pictures of thoughts pressing on your attention; the real authority remains your awareness. In Neville's fashion, the message is not about historical conquest but about inner reclamation: the kingdom of God is within, and every apparent collapse or conquest outside is a movement of your own imagination being revised. Thus the siege is a cue to settle into the feeling that the word spoken to Jeremiah is spoken to you: you are already as God created you—intact, unbound, and sovereign in consciousness. By returning to that state and refusing to identify with the contested outer scene, you permit the inner word to rearrange the seen world. The facts on the page become signs that your inner life is free, awaiting your conscious acknowledgment.
