The King Of Terrors Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Child of consciousness, hear this: the devouring is not a tiger outside you, but the swallowing belief you have about yourself. The scripture speaks of the strength being eaten away, of confidence pulled from your tabernacle, and of the king of terrors entering by the door of your own imagination. When you live in fear—when you imagine your life is doomed, when you permit the firstborn of death to be the ruling principle—your inner world contracts and you feel weak, isolated, and exposed. Yet the words are only a mirror: they reveal the state you have entertained. Turn, therefore, to the I AM within, to the awareness that is always whole. The “brimstone scattered upon his habitation” is simply mental heat—consciousness flaring with condemnation—burning away the false furniture of your mind. By recognizing that you are the one who eyes the sequence of ruin, you can reverse it. Rise in the steady sense that you are the life, the strength, and the peace that nothing can erode. The king of terrors dissolves when the inner tabernacle stands firm in the light of I AM.
