Inner Tabernacle Of The I Am

Biblical Context
Exodus 26:18-21 directs the tabernacle's boards and silver sockets, forming a structured enclosure. It allegorizes how fixed states of mind hold and stabilize true worship within the inner temple.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture the tabernacle as your own consciousness, raised by the I AM that you are. The twenty boards on the south and the twenty on the north are not mere timber; they are fixed states of mind you intentionally hold in covenant with God within you. The forty sockets beneath the boards are the steady supports into which your two tenons pass and anchor into form—two motives for each board that keep your belief aligned with life. Each pair reminds you that belief and action must be yoked, attention to intention, faith to expression. When you claim this inner architecture, you cease worshiping a distant shrine and begin honoring the Presence that already abides here. The insistence on holiness becomes a discipline of separating noisy thoughts from the quiet I AM awareness, so Presence can permeate every corner of living. Thus the outward arrangement mirrors your inner covenant: precise, loyal, and alive with God’s immediacy, always ready to be felt and lived.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, picture the inner tabernacle; place twenty boards on the south and twenty on the north, set with forty silver sockets, and feel the I AM anchoring each move. Now revise one limiting belief by affirming, 'I AM' as the power behind it and feeling it real until the image stands firm.
