One Spirit Within: Joined to the Lord

Neville's Inner Vision

To be joined unto the Lord is to awaken to the fact that the Lord is not a person outside you, but the I AM that you are perceiving as awareness. Paul points to a fusion of imagination and conviction, where the inner state and the outer world move as one stream. In this reading, the Lord is your present awareness—your own sense of I AM—through which all things are seen and future events are imagined. There is no separation to perform; there is only a shift in assuming that you and God are already one, a covenant loyalty to the truth within. The covenant is not a contract with an external deity but a commitment to your inner reality until it expresses itself as life. When you persist in that unity, you notice the world bending to the rhythm of one spirit: desires align, circumstances answer, and fear dissolves into trust. This is not manipulation; it is the recognition that your imagination is the visible form of God in you.
