Inner War in Heaven

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of heaven not as a distant realm but as the state of awareness you inhabit now. In this inner theater, Michael represents the dominant, righteous I AM—your settled sense of self that rules by divine awareness. The dragon and its angels are the thoughts and fears that have claimed a corner of consciousness, bidding you to doubt who you are. When Michael and his angels prevail, the mind dislodges the dragon, and there is no longer any room for those counterfeit powers in the citadel of your awareness. The sentence 'neither was their place found any more in heaven' mirrors the moment you refuse to entertain limitation any longer; you cast out the fear-filled images and make room for the truth of your I AM. This is not about warfare outside you but a revision in your inner state. Your job is to assume Michael's priestly authority—that you are the ruler in your own heaven—and to dwell in that state until it feels natural, until the old dragon cannot breathe in the lungs of your consciousness.
