Solomon's Temple Within You

Neville's Inner Vision

Solomon’s outward rites symbolize inner acts rather than external forms. The three yearly cycles correspond to habitual states of consciousness: surrender of the old self, harmony with the divine covenant, and the ascent of feeling into prayer. The altar before the LORD is the focal point of awareness; when you stand there in imagination, the ‘house’ you are building becomes a sanctuary in which presence is felt, not a building made with hands. To finish the house is to complete your inner temple, so that God—your I AM—dwells as the steady reality of your life. True Worship is loyalty to this inner pattern; Holiness and Separation mean choosing thoughts and feelings that align with the divine order, not the transient winds of fear. Covenant Loyalty is the unwavering conviction that God is your source and your identity. This is a psychological drama: as you consistently assume the state of the finished temple, the outer world rearranges to match the inner sanctuary.
