Inner Fire of Obadiah

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the house of Jacob as your awakened awareness, the house of Joseph as the disciplined, creative energy of your imagination, and Esau as the stubborn habit of separation you once believed. In the inner court of your mind, the fire and the flame do not threaten you; they reveal what you have already decided in consciousness. When you say, 'the LORD hath spoken it,' hear it as the I AM speaking through you, decreeing the passing of the old self. The stubble of Esau cannot endure the heat of your inner vision; as you dwell in the stillness, the blaze consumes the old pattern, leaving no residue except a purer state of consciousness. This is judgment as correction, not condemnation; it's a return to unity—the recognition that you are all fire, all flame within the same I AM. Expect the appearance of change in your affairs as a natural outworking of this inward decree, not as a demand from without.
