Covenant to the I AM

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture this oath as an inner vow rather than a distant ceremony. In Neville’s language, the LORD is the I AM within you, the state of conscious awareness you inhabit. The loud voice and the music are outward symbols of an inner decision: you choose to dwell in the truth that you are one with the I AM. When the people swear, they are rehearsing in the imagination a covenant of loyalty to that one reality; the external sounds mirror the internal conviction. The real work is not the shout but the revision of your sense of self until the Holy Presence feels immediate. If you refuse the old story and adopt the assumption of ownership over your inner king, your world must reform to fit the inner state. Therefore, treat the verse as a manual for mental practice: repeatedly return to the inner oath, feel it as already done, and act from that certainty. Realize that the outer circumstances respond to the inner alignment you maintain.
