Divine Visitation Within Hannah

Neville's Inner Vision

To Hannah, the visitation of the LORD is not an event in time but an inner awakening—a shift in consciousness that turns longing into possibility. The LORD visiting her is the I AM familiarizing itself with her desire, turning it into a seed that can grow. Conception then arises as the mind receives a living image and nourishes it with attention, belief, and feeling. Samuel’s growth before the LORD is the inner child maturing under this divine gaze, a proof that the seed has taken root in consciousness and begun to unfold in form. In Neville terms, Providence is a law of consciousness: when you dwell in a state of favor, you invite visitation, the birth of new faculties, and the steady ascent of your inner life into outward expression. The outer events—family, fruitfulness, growth—are the natural expressions of an inner state rightly managed. The verse invites you to recognize that grace is not imposed from outside but realized within your own I AM. By cultivating the feeling of being seen, blessed, and guided, you align with a continual inner visitation that shapes your days.
