Inner Deliverance Psalm 81:5-7

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider this psalm as a manual for the inner man. Joseph stands for your higher self, planted in bondage of fear as your present state, going out through the inner Egypt of limitation. The strange language you hear is the ego's old script, intelligible to no one but your former self. Then the I AM speaks: I remove the shoulder from the burden; I lift the hands from pots—meaning, the laboring, grasping effort is released by a higher state of consciousness acknowledging truth. When you call in trouble, I deliver you; I answer in the secret place of thunder, the quiet coherence of awareness beyond mental noise. I prove you at the waters of Meribah—moments of apparent testing become tests of faith in your ability to live from the inner kingdom of I AM. This is not external history but an inner revision: you are already free, you simply align with the memory of your deliverance until it feels real. Your state of consciousness, lived from now, becomes the testimony that leads your life.
