Inner Covenant of Isaac

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the I AM, God's voice speaks as your own conscious life. When the text says Sarah shall bear thee a son named Isaac, it is not describing a distant event but an inner birth of a new state of consciousness. The mother and the child are symbols: Sarah is receptivity, the idea that allows itself to become, Isaac is the formed end your imagination now names as real. The covenant with him and with his seed is the inner agreement that this idea will reproduce itself in your life, generation after generation of circumstance meeting the promise you have chosen. Isaac stands for a fresh state of being you now welcome—health, harmony, creative power, or any end you covenant with—made manifest by your present assumption. The everlasting covenant is the unwavering habit of dwelling as if the end is already true, renewing that inner belief until it radiates into your world. The seed after him are the beliefs that continue to spring from that original act, bringing forth ever-new expressions of the one idea. Trust this interior birth, and the outer world rearranges to reflect it.
