Inner Coastlines Of Liberation

Neville's Inner Vision

Zephaniah speaks the language of states, not places. The coast is only a scene in your consciousness where old storms once gathered as collective belief. When you understand that 'Gaza' and 'Ashkelon' symbolize the unproductive habits and fears you'd abandoned, their desolation becomes a diagnostic image: a belief that has outlived its usefulness. The 'remnant of the house of Judah' is not a tribe but a stable state of awareness—a portion of you that remains faithful to the I AM, the ever-present I that you are. The prophecy promises that the coast will be given to this remnant; in your inner weather this means the space on your horizon is free and prepared for new, gentle shepherding of thoughts. God visiting them and turning captivity is the moment your attention turns from lack to fullness, from bondage to freedom. Trust that your inner coast is being cleared for a simple, divine life, where you lie down in the evening in fresh, quiet certainty.
