Proverbs 5:20 Inner Alignment

Neville's Inner Vision

View the 'strange woman' not as a person, but as a foreign image or craving arising in your own consciousness. The 'son' is the inner I AM, the timeless observer of every impulse. When you feel ravished by a stranger, you have not failed; you have merely noticed a thought-image tugging you away from your true state. The remedy is a shift of state, not a judgment: acknowledge the disturbance and declare the reality you know to be true, that God, the I AM, dwells within this moment. Let holiness be practical discipline—choose the one consciousness that you are, and refuse the counterfeit impression. By returning to the inner I AM, you cultivate discernment, and the lure loses its hold. Wisdom becomes the art of remaining conscious of your true nature, rather than chasing appearances. In this light, obedience is obedience to inner truth, not to external rules; separation from counterfeit impressions restores you to life lived from within the eternal.
