25And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars.

26And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house standeth, that I may lean upon them.

Judges 16:25-26

Biblical Context

Judges 16:25–26 shows the crowd mocking Samson and placing him between the house’s pillars. He asks the boy to let him feel the pillars so he may lean.

Neville's Inner Vision

Judges 16:25–26 presents a mental scene: the crowd’s merriment tests your outer self while you stand between the inner pillars of awareness. The pillars are not stones but the fixed structures of imagination and consciousness by which you support your life. Samson’s request to touch them names a basic spiritual act: identify the inner supports you rely on, and align your I AM awareness with them. The lad stands as your inner guide, directing you to where your faith belongs. If you imagine yourself between these pillars, you can feel the weight and steadiness of consciousness beneath every outward change. The deliverance you seek comes not by escaping others’ sport but by turning attention from external spectacle to inner certainty—the I AM behind every scene. Remember: what you imagine you inhabit; what you entertain as real becomes your life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine standing between two pillars in the temple of your mind, feeling the solid support of consciousness beneath you. Quietly declare, 'I am the I AM; I lean on the eternal pillars of my mind' and dwell in that steadiness.
