Garments For Inner Priesthood
Exodus 40:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 40 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Aaron is commanded to wear holy garments, be anointed, and sanctified so he may serve as priest to God.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner sense, Exodus 40:13 is not about gold and fabrics but about your states of consciousness. The 'holy garments' are the inner dispositions you wear: reverence, purity, steadiness, and receptivity. The 'anointing' is the felt confirmation of your readiness—the surge of awareness that you are chosen to serve from the I AM, not by your ego striving. 'Sanctify' is the intentional cleansing of thought and motive, the removing of fear, doubt, and self-will so that your mind rests in God. When you align these inner qualities, you are prepared to 'minister unto me'—to let the Divine Life express through your acts, speech, and decisions. The priestly office is then a present relationship with the I AM within, a daily function of listening, perceiving, and acting from total inner unity. In Neville's teaching, the temple you serve is the consciousness you occupy; your life becomes evidence that imagination, rightly held, creates reality and that God is the awareness you already are.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine you are Aaron. Put on the inner garments of patience, integrity, and quiet power; feel anointing warmth sealing your chest; declare softly, 'I am sanctified to minister to the I AM within.'
