Inner Worship, Outer Authority

Neville's Inner Vision

In this moment the governor is the outer voice of circumstance, and Paul remains anchored in the I AM—the inner state of worship. Paul’s cheerful reply shows that outer positions are only reflections in consciousness, not dictates of reality. The line about twelve days marks a symbolic pause, a finite interval within the endless now illuminated by devotion. Neville would have you see worship not as a ritual tied to place but as an inward alignment with the divine I AM, a condition your mind must freely assume. To understand is to revise perception until the outer scene harmonizes with your inner recognition. When you recognize you are always the I AM observing the drama, you can honor outer authority without surrendering inner sovereignty. Your life becomes a continuous act of worship, a certainty that the self creates its circumstances by its state of consciousness, not by the judgments of men.
