Inner Victory Psalms 13:4

Neville's Inner Vision

In the psalm, the 'enemy' and the 'trouble' are not persons but states of consciousness that would have you yield to fear. When you fear being prevailed upon, you momentarily concede that you are moved by appearances. Neville would bid you interpret 'I have prevailed' as a projection of your own inner state—an assurance you have claimed in the I AM. The truth is you are always unassailably present as awareness; the world merely reflects the disposition you entertain. If you sense yourself moved, you have given power to a belief in separation. The remedy is not to fight the outer foe but to re-enter the inner kingdom where the only ruler is God, the I AM within. By assuming the feeling of triumph as the fundamental reality, you revise the scene: the enemy’s boast dissolves into a mere sensation, and those who trouble you do not void your value. Stand firm in the consciousness that the Power of your life governs every scene; let your inner certainty govern the day, and the outer conditions will conform to that standard.
