Inner Land Claim: Jephthah's Message

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the scene as a study in inner borders and what you consider yours. The land in question is the field of your own awareness, the space over which the I AM rules in you. The Ammonite king is a stubborn belief insisting that a past action has stolen your peace. When Jephthah asks, What hast thou to do with me… to fight in my land, he speaks to the current, active you who will not yield to old grievances in the present moment. The king’s claim that Israel took away the land from Arnon to Jordan reveals how memory can be projected as a new attack against the self now choosing in freedom. In Neville’s terms, you revise the narrative until it reflects ownership rather than loss. Assume you occupy the inner land here and now; feel the land restored; know that the I AM governs every inch of your mind’s territory. As you hold that feeling, the border dispute dissolves, and a new alignment with consciousness arises. Imagination creates reality; you are not contending with others but with a belief you have given power to, and you can withdraw that power with a simple, conscious revision.
