Inner Exodus of Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn speaks not of a distant Deity but the I AM within you—the steadfast awareness that can strike down the 'Egypt' of bondage in your mind. Egypt's firstborn is the fiercest habit, the 'old man' who assumes authority over your life, the dominant belief that you are separated from your good. When that firstborn is struck—when the old limitation collapses—mercy endures forever: not a reward after punishment, but the natural mercy of awareness that forgives your past and reveals your true state. In Neville's lens, the act is interior: you revise the story by assuming you are the one who commands, you feel the truth in your heart, and the external scene shifts to reflect your inner state. Keep returning to the I AM as the source of freedom; the more you dwell in that awareness, the more the sense of bondage dissolves, and mercy becomes the atmosphere you breathe.
