Abram's Faithful Departure

Neville's Inner Vision

To the mind that hears the LORD speak, the call is not a move of geography but a shift of consciousness. Abram's departure is your inner decision to leave Haran—the place where you told yourself this is as far as I can go. Lot's presence is the companionship of your current thoughts and fears; they go with you until the moment your I AM commands you to reorient. When God says, 'Go,' you respond with a definite inward agreement: 'I am now departing from limitation in the way I imagine it.' The verse places Abram at seventy-five; time, like matter, yields to the power of a persistent assumption. The act of departure is the assumption that the unseen promise is already your present condition. In this sense, obedience is not compliance to a distant decree but a realization in consciousness of what you already are. As you persist in the inner vision, your outer scene gradually aligns; Lot may traverse with you for a season, yet the true path is the inward covenant loyalty to the I AM that makes the future present.
