1 Samuel 3:10

Biblical Context

1 Samuel 3:10 shows God calling Samuel, and Samuel's reply expresses readiness to listen. It presents listening and obedient receptivity as the model for hearing the divine voice.

Neville's Inner Vision

Samuel in this scene stands for a waking state of consciousness within you that becomes aware of the I AM. The LORD coming, standing, and calling signifies the Presence of God in your mind - not an outward visitation but the inner self-present I AM awakening to itself. The repetition, Samuel, Samuel, marks the familiar cadence of inspiration you recognize when your attention shifts. Samuel's reply, Speak; for thy servant heareth, becomes a practical declaration: you align with the inner call and affirm your willingness to hear. In Neville's psychology, events are inner movements; the voice that speaks is the I AM within you, and your life follows the quality of your listening. The key practice is to assume you are already spoken to and to revise any doubt into the certainty that the inner word is real. When you inhabit that state, your outer life begins aligning with the inner design, as if a command has been heard and surrendered to.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, rest in the I AM, and silently say, 'Speak; for I am listening.' Then imagine the inner voice answering, and feel the reality of hearing it now.
