Inner Priesthood of Mind

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the names Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, Jachin, and the rest are not distant genealogies but states of consciousness you permit to guard your inner sanctuary. Each name stands for a habitual quality you center in your awareness—purity, order, devotion, and lineage of discipline—that keep the temple intact. The 'ruler of the house of God' is not an external priest but the sovereign I AM that sits as supervisor over every act of attention. When you imagine being the custodian of the inner temple, you are choosing which thoughts and feelings may enter and which may be set apart; you are establishing holiness and separation not as rule but as rhythm of your inner life. The presence of God becomes the felt reality of awareness itself—consciousness that simply witnesses and animates. Work and vocation here become inner service: to tend, organize, and honor the sanctuary so that your worship is not ritual in time but order in consciousness. The essential truth is that your inner temple is always governed by a ruler who loves the truth of your I AM.
