Awakened Obedience: Balaam's Morning

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of this as a symbolic awakening. The morning rise, the donkey, and the company of Moab's princes are not mere events; they are pictures of your inner world in motion. Balaam's decision to move with those authorities is the outer sign of a life being led by a strong impulse from the I AM—your living consciousness that chooses what you call real. In Neville's sense, every outward scene is a projection of an inward state. If you would see your life reorganized, you must first adopt the inner posture that the end you seek is already yours. The donkey is your instrument of action; the burden you bear is the weight of your belief. By affirming that the end is fulfilled, you invite the steps to align with it: rising, saddling, and going out into the world with confidence that God is present as your awareness. The moment you hold that truth in mind, the circumstantial actors—like the princes of Moab—become your silent guides, nudging you along the path that your inner vision has declared.
