Inner Redeemer of Job 19

Neville's Inner Vision

Is not the scene the inner drama of consciousness? When Job says the hand of God hath touched me, he names an awakening inside that no argument can shake. The longing that his words be written into a book becomes a fixed image graven in the rock of awareness, an unalterable idea of being known by the I AM. 'For I know that my redeemer liveth' reveals the present faith of the inner I, the ever-living Self that cannot die and will stand in the latter day within your experience. 'In my flesh shall I see God' translates as the seeing of God through the body of life—senses, pain, time—once consciousness chooses to awaken to its own reality. 'The root of the matter is found in me' means the cause of every appearance lies in your assumption. By aligning with the inner redeemer as one reality with you, you dissolve the sense of persecution. The sword and its wrath are but the old thoughts dissolving; you rise by refusing them and keeping your attention on the living Presence within, which is your true seeing.
