Amos 6:4

Biblical Context

Amos 6:4 pictures the luxurious, careless life of rulers who lie on ivory beds, stretch on couches, and devour the flock’s lambs and calves.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner scene is not about ancient kings, but about states of consciousness. The ivory beds are fixed attitudes you cling to; the couches are habitual, self-satisfied positions; the eating of the flock’s lambs and calves represents energy diverted to private appetite rather than the whole. Amos’ image becomes a mirror for your mind: when you dwell in outward riches while ignoring inner vitality, you block the flow of Providence. The remedy is simple: awaken to the I AM within, claim that you are the source and sustenance of all you require. Enter a mindset of unity, gratitude, and creative abundance, and watch inner movements shift from scarcity to supply. The I AM does not give from without; it awakens within, and your life rearranges to reflect that state.
