Recognizing the Inner Prophet

Neville's Inner Vision

She calls him a prophet because she has opened a door in consciousness that already knows the voice of truth. In the Neville key, the figures on the page are states of your own I AM meeting itself. When she says, 'Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet,' she is not pointing to an external office; she is naming the moment when inner discernment lines up with the outer conversation. The 'prophet' is the living expression of truth within you—the part of you that speaks with certainty about what is true in the moment. Your attention and feeling are the channel through which reality answers. Therefore the scene invites you to recognize the prophet in your own life: see every relationship as a reflection of your inner state, and allow the inner discernment to declare truth rather than wait for it as a distant event. The act of assuming you are already in touch with that prophetic faculty, and rehearsing it, makes the inner recognition real. By living from that inner state, you draw forth the living water of assurance and faith.
