Inner Temple Foundations

Neville's Inner Vision

Solomon’s act to begin building the temple is your decision to establish a fixed point of awareness in the center of your life. Mount Moriah becomes not a hill in a distant land but the mental height where you rise in imagination to the I AM. The LORD appearing to David at the threshing floor signals the moment consciousness separates from mere noise and remembers its true ground. The threshing floor is the clearing of beliefs, the separation of chaff from grain, a mental ground prepared for sacred use. Ornan the Jebusite’s place stands for your own soil—the foundation you choose to consecrate by decision and feeling. When you begin construction, you are not building a temple of bricks, but inviting a consistent atmosphere of divine Presence that governs thoughts, feelings, and actions. True worship then is not ritual alone but a settled awareness of being loved, watched, and guided from within. Holiness and separation occur as you refuse to let fear and noise claim the center; you dedicate it to the I AM and dwell there, softly, steadily, as the temple of God in the now.
