Biblical Context
Psalm 22:12-13 portrays the psalmist surrounded by powerful beasts—strong bulls and a roaring lion—signifying intense opposition and fear. It points to an inner struggle of faith under pressure.
Neville's Inner Vision
Be mindful that the field of battle is not outside you but in your own consciousness. The bulls of Bashan and the ravening lion are not enemies in a distant land; they are vivid appearances of a mind drifted into separation from the I AM. When you accept that you are the life and awareness in which all events unfold, the scene must rearrange itself to fit that truth. The I AM does not fear; it simply knows. So treat the crowding beasts as signals that you have forgotten your identity and return to the feeling of completeness. By assuming the state 'I am whole,' you starve fear of its energy and it dissolves, leaving quiet, steady light. Your past readings of danger become illustrations of the mind's habit; you can rewrite them by dwelling in unity, gratitude, and mercy as your natural response. The psalm becomes a guide: use it to reframe every seeming attack as a reminder that you are never separate from God, never lost in sound.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, take a breath, and assume the I AM as your constant awareness. Revise the scene by declaring, 'These bulls and the lion are only manifestations of my thoughts; I am unmovable, one with God, and the peace of unity now fills me.'
