Inner Mirror Of Gideon

Neville's Inner Vision

From a Neville Goddard vantage, Zebah and Zalmunna are not distant men but images of your own restless thoughts—fears, pride, and the sense of lack that march behind every Tabór of your life. When they answer, 'As thou art, so were they,' you hear the law: your outer battles are exact mirrors of your present state of consciousness. Gideon’s declaration, 'they were my brethren, the sons of my mother,' invites you to forgive the parts of you you label as enemies; mercy toward them dissolves the power they have over you. The youth who does not strike—Jether—shows the mind’s hesitation when change feels perilous. The command, 'Rise thou, and fall upon us,' is your inner decision to embody the I AM and meet every projection with the certainty that strength flows from the state you inhabit. When Gideon slays and takes the ornaments from their camels, you understand that the ornaments symbolize false powers—identifications with fear, fame, or control—that you discard as your awareness awakens. Thus, the outer victory is the natural fruit of an awakened inner state, where your consciousness does the work and the world follows.
