Your Inner Jerusalem Siege

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah 6:6 invites you to see the siege as a symbol of your inner state. The LORD of hosts is the I AM within you, the awareness that governs every thought. The command to hew down trees and cast a mount around Jerusalem becomes a practical image: cut away the wooden supports of old beliefs, the habits of fear and oppression that keep your inner city confined. When your inner city is visited with judgment, know that you are not being punished from without, but invited to revise from within. Stand in the awareness of the I AM and imagine the inner Jerusalem as a living, breathable space. Build a mound of radiant consciousness around it so truth can operate without interference. Then revise by feeling the end—the city is free, just, and at peace—and let the old structures fall away as if dissolved by light. Exile and return are motions of your consciousness; you move through them by steadfast inner alignment, choosing righteousness and justice in your inner life.
