Inner Choice in Jeremiah 38:2

Neville's Inner Vision

This verse whispers a foundational Neville truth: your external situation is but a mirror of your inner state. The city represents the present pattern of consciousness you cling to—fear, limitation, and the belief that life depends on outward conditions. To remain is to consent to the inner die-off of identity; to go forth to the Chaldeans is to move your attention into the I AM, the sustaining awareness within you. When you choose the inner movement toward that divine mind, you discover that life is not at the mercy of circumstance but secured by your alignment with the higher order of consciousness. The ‘life for a prey’ is your inner sovereignty, a claim that true vitality belongs to the Self that never abandons its own awareness. In this light, salvation and redemption are present-tense acts of revision: you rewrite the story by choosing a new center of gravity—the indwelling I AM—until the nearness of God becomes your natural state, here and now.
