Inner Church in the Wilderness

Neville's Inner Vision

In this verse the 'church in the wilderness' is your present state of consciousness, a stage where you do not rely on outward signs but on inner guidance. The angel who spoke on Sinai is the I AM within you, your awareness delivering timely commandments—the lively oracles—that awaken you to your true nature and loyalty to the Covenant of life. The people’s fathers and the long tradition symbolize your own past states of assumption; yet the oracles come anew to you as you revise and reset your inner weather. When you accept that these words are not external laws but inner impressions felt as fact, you come to see that God does not dwell in distant temples but as your own awareness guiding you. The Presence of God is not an event but the continuous whisper of the I AM inside your chest, nudging you toward the promised reality you choose by your state. Allow the memory of Moses to become your own act of imagination: you are now in the wilderness, and the voice you hear is the creative command that shapes your life.
