Inner Sacrifice Altar Practice

Neville's Inner Vision

Ezra 7:17 invites you to remap your finances as the economy of your inner temple. In Neville's manner, the money you are told to 'buy' with is your current attention, belief, and feeling-tone. To 'offer' bullocks, rams, lambs, and their meat and drink offerings is to assemble and dispatch the components of your consciousness—strength of purpose, steadfast will, innocence of faith, nourishment of gratitude—upon the altar of the house of your God within. The altar in Jerusalem becomes not a place of stones but the place where your I AM awareness stands, where you obey the inner decree that the divine presence is present now. The call to do it 'speedily' is a whisper that allows no hesitation; you do not bargain with lack, you choose the reality of your state and let it move through you to become present. Faithfulness is simply remaining in the assumed reality until the senses awaken to its truth. What you sacrifice is not externals but the old assumptions that keep you separate from God within.
