Inner Fire and Covenant Consequences

Neville's Inner Vision

All things hide in the interior. The 'I' who speaks in scripture is the I AM, your undivided awareness. When the verse says, if ye walk contrary unto me, you are choosing thoughts that resist your own divine order. The 'fury' spoken of is not a random outburst of history but the inner friction arising when opposed to your God-state. The sevenfold chastisement points to recurring mental loops—old habits you rehearse until you yield and re-choose. The outer conditions, in Neville's sense, are simply reflections of inner dispositions; the covenant written here is the agreement you make with your own consciousness: you either align with the I AM or you bend the world to your most persistent fear. To rewrite the scene, you must revise from within: assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled; treat it as present fact, and let the inner conviction draw the corresponding outer events into line. Your persistence in the new story dissolves the old resistance, and the appearance of punishment collapses into harmony.
