Bezek's Reckoning Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Judah is your decisive I AM that steps up in your inner Bezek. When the LORD delivers the Canaanites and Perizzites into your hand, that is a state of consciousness moving to right action, subduing old fears. The slaughter of ten thousand is the inner victory where conviction overshadows doubt. Adonibezek's flight and pursuit illustrate how a rejected belief tries to escape consequences, only to be caught by steady attention. Cutting off thumbs and great toes becomes a symbolic act: you remove the old means of acting from limitation; no longer do you permit the false self to manipulate you. His boast, 'as I have done, so God hath requited me,' is the inner law that you reap the energetic equivalent of your previous thoughts. Brought to Jerusalem, the captive self dies in you, and with it a former reign of limitation ends—providence guides you to a liberated center where you know yourself as the deliverer, as the justice that reconciles.
