Temple Within: Heaven's Throne
Acts 7:49 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Acts 7:49 declares God does not dwell in a man-made house but in the realm of consciousness; heaven is the throne of awareness and earth its footstool, inviting you to seek the true temple within.
Neville's Inner Vision
God is not contained by walls; the Father is the I AM behind every thought and feeling. When you hear, 'what house will ye build me?' you are being invited to examine your own state of consciousness. Heaven, as the throne, is the clarity of awareness that sits above every belief you entertain. Earth, as the footstool, is the outer world on which your inner movements are played, never the dwelling place of the divine. The true temple is not a stone building but the flame of awareness you sustain. To rest in God is to align with the I AM, not to search for a place. Therefore revise your sense of house and build within a sanctuary of cause, where your imagination rules.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume, with feeling, that I AM is the throne within you. Rest in that inner temple until the sense of separation dissolves and rest becomes your default state.
