Congregation Within Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the outer ceremony mirrors an inner movement of consciousness. The congregation represents your collective states of awareness—thoughts, feelings, and imaginal rehearsals—rising in harmony as they lift a single purpose to God. The singers and trumpeters are the melodies of faith and expectant feeling that accompany your assumption. The burning of the offering signifies the voluntary surrender of personal attachment; it is not sacrifice to a distant power but the purging of fixed desires by the I AM that you are. When the offering ends and the king and all who stood with him bow, you are reminded that true worship is not the event but the alignment—the moment when your attention hovers in humility before Presence. In that stillness, the inner I AM answers as your own sense of reality, and the outer world follows the shift in consciousness. If you inhabit that inner congregation, you enact the state of gratitude, unity, and obedient faith that God always recognizes as true worship.
