Dwelling Within: The Ark Inside

Neville's Inner Vision

David’s scene is your inner forecast. He sits in a cedar house and notices that the ark’s dwelling remains hidden under curtains—an inner reality that outward grandeur cannot reveal. The ark is not a distant object but the covenant I AM within you. When Nathan says, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee, he points to aligning your inner state with the divine presence rather than merely constructing a temple. Your true temple is a consciousness that knows God dwells wherever you are aware of the I AM. The kingdom of God comes as your longing meets the felt truth of God’s nearness. To reinterpret this, assume you already live in the ark’s proximity: the ark and the tent are one, held apart only by your old view. Revise that view by feeling you are under the curtains of limitation and, through the power of assumption, pull back the curtain to reveal radiant presence.
