Ezekiel 42:20

Biblical Context

Ezekiel 42:20 describes a measured wall around the sanctuary, marking a boundary between holy space and the profane. It highlights the care given to preserve what is sacred.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice how the text speaks of measurement, a four-sided enclosure, a line drawn to distinguish what is consecrated from what is ordinary. In Neville's language, this is an inner boundary, a state of consciousness where the I AM, your aware self, erects a wall within the mind. The sanctuary is your awareness, the profane place are restless thoughts, external conditions, or unclean desires. The act of measuring and surrounding with a wall is not geography but discipline: you decide, in imagination, what belongs in your present sense of self and what does not. By imagining a safe enclosure, you renew your sense of separation from distraction, while keeping the divine presence intact. The boundary is not a barrier to others but a safeguard that preserves the integrity of your inner worship and your perception of God within. When you perceive a thought as profane, revise it to fit holiness, and feel the boundary tighten around your sacred space.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and in imagination draw a four-cornered wall around your inner sanctuary. State, 'I AM the presence that guards sacred space; nothing profane may enter without my consent,' and feel the boundary settle as sacred awareness fills your center.
