Covenant to Seek the LORD

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the Goddard lens, the covenant is an inner alignment, not a parchment decree. The people declare they will seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and soul, which means a total conversion of motive, attention, and belief to the one awareness called I AM. The external threat in the text—the penalty for those who do not seek—is, for us, a symbol: the old state of separation dies when the new state of unity is imagined alive. When you adopt the decision to seek the LORD with your entire being, you are choosing to cease dividing your life into parts and to stop entertaining conflicting states. The loud oaths and trumpets become symbolic language for the inner, decisive voice of imagination. This is not a future promise; it is a present alignment, a moment when you acknowledge that the LORD, the I AM within, governs every circumstance. Thus the covenant you enact in imagination becomes the foundation upon which your world rearranges itself to reflect that state.
