Job 16:13-14 Inner Warfare

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider that the archers, reins, and gall are not distant enemies but images born in your own consciousness. The 'he' of the verse is not a deity separate from you but the very state of attention you have entertained. When fear, pain, and weariness circle you, you are witnessing the dynamics of your own mind, as if you were a spectator to a drama you once authored. The mind creates the impression of being broken by repeated breaches, yet the I AM—your essential awareness—remains unmoved behind the scenes. To shift the scene, you do not plead with the outer forces; you re-embody the inner ruler. Return to the conviction, right now, that you are the author of your experience and that imagination is the operator of the stage. By assuming the presence of the I AM as your permanent state, you dissolve the belief that you are subject to assault. The archers withdraw as you hold the feeling of sovereignty; the giant dissolves into stillness when you insist on perceiving from the witness within. Everything external then aligns with your inner witness.
