Genesis 19:1

Biblical Context

In Genesis 19:1, two angelic visitors come to Sodom at evening. Lot, seated at the city gate, rises to meet them and bows with his face to the ground.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's light, the two angels are not strangers to a distant city but moves of your own awareness arriving at the gate of your mind. The evening hour marks a moment of choice between familiar habit and a higher order of sensation. Lot sits at the gate—a symbol of a boundary-state where you decide which thought governs you. When he rises to meet the visitors and bows, you witness the proper posture toward the I AM—the eternal awareness that you are not the city's turmoil but the consciousness through which it appears. The gate represents the threshold where you invite or resist transformation; welcoming the visitors is hospitality toward your higher impulses, not surrender to fear. Remember: God is the I AM, and imagination creates reality. By treating these inner messengers as real and reverent, you align outer conditions with a truer pattern. The Sodom of the story becomes a consciousness ready to be instructed by divine principle, so your environment can shift as you honor these inner visitors with intention and calm.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: For the next moment, assume you are in the presence of your inner messengers; feel the ground beneath you and bow to the I AM within. Then revise any current situation by declaring, 'I am the I AM, and these messengers stand at my gate.'
