Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the priests of your inner temple are states of consciousness poised to worship. The children of Jedaiah, the house of Jeshua, become your active faculties—awareness, discernment, loyalty, and reverence—arrayed as a divine staff ready to fulfill true worship. The count, nine hundred seventy-three, is not a census of outward people but a symbol for the many ways your I AM can present itself in service to the covenant of love and holiness. When you align with this inner order, separation from fear and false need occurs; you stand in the sanctity of your own consciousness, and your world rearranges to reflect the dignity of the imago Dei. The temple you tend is sacred because you are the temple, and God is the I AM within you. Your remembrance of this covenant awakens fidelity to radiant living, not by external ritual, but by an interior alignment that makes the extraordinary possible here and now in awareness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, declare, 'I am the priest of my temple; I am the house of Jeshua in my mind.' Then revise your state to 'I am aligned with the covenant of love and holiness,' and feel that fidelity as a living sensation across your entire being.
