Read Deuteronomy 33 in context

Scripture Focus

23And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the LORD: possess thou the west and the south.

Deuteronomy 33:23

Biblical Context

Naphtali is described as filled with God's favor and blessing, with instruction to possess the western and southern lands. In plain terms, the verse points to an inner readiness that follows from God’s gracious state being alive in you.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the Neville reader, this line reveals a truth about the I AM: favor is not a distant event but a state you awaken within. Naphtali, the figure of readiness and speed, embodies a consciousness that is fully supplied by the LORD. When you dwell in the feeling of being favored, you realign your inner geography—the 'west' and 'south' becoming the directions of your life where opportunities, resources, and relief move toward you. The blessing is not a geographic grant but an inner condition that you assume. The moment you accept, 'I am satisfied with favor, I am full of the LORD's blessing,' you begin to act from a different center; doors open not by chance but by the shift of your awareness. The world becomes the outward sign of your inward state; you do not chase it, you inhabit it. Realize that the I AM is your awareness, and imagination creates this possession by moving your inner landscape into alignment with your desire. Remain steadfast in the feeling that it is already done, and the outer will follow.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and dwell in the feeling of being already favored, imagining you possess the west and the south. Repeat the present-tense affirmation: I am favored by God and I now possess my desired directions.
