Inner Sacrifice Before the LORD

Neville's Inner Vision

When you read 2 Chronicles 7:4, hear the scene not as a historical event but as a mirror of your own inner economy. The king represents the ruler of your consciousness—the I AM that governs the stages of your life. The people are the various states of feeling, memory, desire, and thought pressed into service. The act of sacrificing before the LORD is not a ritual to appease an external deity, but an invitation to move your inner attention from scarcity to abundance, from noise to stillness. In Neville's terms, every offering is a revision: you lay down a thought or craving at the feet of the One Infinite Presence within you, acknowledging that you are already complete in God. When the inner I AM accepts these offerings, you experience at-one-ment: your present sense of self harmonizes with your divine identity. The outward act becomes a symbol of inner obedience—obedience to the truth that imagination creates reality. In practice, this is a discipline of awareness: present, name what you offer, and persist in the feeling of thankfulness as the I AM takes it in and transfigures it.
