Inner Covenant Fire

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville Goddard's key, this text becomes an invitation to reclaim your inner covenant. Forgetting the covenant is forgetting your true I AM. The graven image is any fixed picture you cling to about yourself or life, a counterfeit self you carry before your consciousness. The jealous, consuming fire is the burning clarity of awareness that refines consciousness until only the real self remains. When you identify with a story, a limitation, or an image, you place a rival before the God within, not because you are wicked, but because vision is blurred. The fire is not punishment; it is purification that dissolves what does not belong to your true nature. By choosing to remember the covenant, you invite the inner landscape to reorganize itself: images fade, loyalties shift, and you awaken to the truth that you are the I AM. Your world then re-forms to reflect this alignment, revealing that you are never apart from the covenant you consciously assume.
