Egypt, Fear, and Inner Faith

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 42:17 is not a geographical condemnation but a diagnostic of your inner state. When you fix your face on Egypt—the belief that security comes from external power—you publish a future shaped by swords, famine, and pestilence in your own experience. The 'evil' spoken of is the self-imposed result of a mind that refuses the I AM as its source. If you speak of safety as something to be found apart from God, you train your heart to endure loss and fear. Yet the moment you revise your stance and affirm, I AM the safety and supply within me, the external threat loses its grip. The sword dissolves into discernment, the famine becomes appetite for spiritual nourishment, and the pestilence fades as awareness expands. The decree of exile turns into a return to your true home, the inner kingdom of God within. You are not punished; you awaken to the truth that your world is a reflection of your consciousness. The old pattern ends as you dwell in the I AM and create from that infinite stability.
