Faithful Inner Establishment

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Neville’s turn, the Lord is not a distant person but your I AM—the steadfast state of awareness that underwrites all you are and do. The verse declares that the I AM shall establish you and keep you from evil, which means your present consciousness can be established in a state where disturbance dissolves and protection flows. When Paul says we have confidence in the Lord toward you, that you both do and will do the things commanded, he is describing the inner certainty that your imaginative acts are already completed in principle. Obedience is not external ritual but alignment with the inner law of feeling and intention; faith is trust in the inner governor who guides your thoughts toward right action. Providence and guidance are your inner atmosphere, not a distant sky. Your future is a natural expression of a mind that remains loyal to this inward establishment. By repeatedly assuming this state, you will find yourself acting from a steadier, protective center, and your fear of evil dissolves as you live from the I AM.
