All Before the Lord: Inner Assembly

Neville's Inner Vision

Before the Lord your God is your I AM, the awareness that holds all of you. The captains, elders, and officers represent the ordered thoughts and duties by which you govern your inner world; the entire company stands as your total state. Your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger symbolize tender, hidden aspects—impulses, memories, and potentials—present in your camp. They are not separate; when you acknowledge them, you invite the divine presence to dwell in your whole being. In Neville’s terms, God is the I AM; consciousness creates reality. When you hold the belief that every facet of self stands united, life reflects that harmony. The journey from scattering to covenant loyalty is an inner alignment, not a geographic gathering. The camp becomes your inner field, the stranger your unknown potential, and unity your persistent choice. Realize that this unity is a state you occupy, not a place you reach.
