Inner Conquest of Joshua 13:21

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse Joshua 13:21 speaks of cities of the plain and the kingdom of Sihon, a territory conquered by Moses and the dukes of that king. In the inward view, these names become states of consciousness you permit within your own mind. The 'cities' are scattered beliefs, the 'kingdom' is your habitual authority—what you accept as ruling your life. The act of Moses smiting them is your decision to awaken; it is the awakening of the I AM as the ruler of your inner land. Notice the princes of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—the many minor thoughts that accompany fear, doubt, or envy. They are not external powers; they are energies arising from your sense of separation. When you acknowledge that the I AM is the true king, the inner land reorganizes: the old dukes lose their grip, the cities are reinterpreted as moments of attention you now bypass. The Presence of God is not outside; it is your awareness choosing what to dwell on. By the practice of feeling the conquest now, you demonstrate that your inner geography has been transformed.
