Guarding Royal Inner Strength

Neville's Inner Vision

Know that you are not commanded to give your strength to outer temptations, nor to any image that would dethrone your kingly order. In the Revised Imagination, the inner 'woman' or the 'that which destroyeth kings' stands as any lure or habit that drains vitality from your I AM awareness. You are the one who rules from within; your true power is the royal energy of consciousness, not a borrowed passion. When you refuse to empower those forces, you are simply choosing the state of sovereignty. See that the act of guarding strength is a discipline of discernment: you test what you entertain, you retract the attention from what weakens your throne, and you affirm the reality that the I AM is your source. By feeling as if you are the king who cannot be dethroned, you shift your life into the image you accept. So revision becomes your daily practice: declare that your strength serves the kingdom of God within, and that nothing external can alter your state.
