Neville's Inner Vision

Look within and see that the caravan Jacob beheld is the inner procession of your own consciousness. The 'host' is not a distant army, but the thoughts, feelings, and imaginal pictures that attend your moment of encounter. When he declares 'This is God's host,' he names the activity of the I AM—God present as awareness taking form in your circumstances. Mahanaim, the two camps, is the symbol of an inner order where division and unity coexist, signaling Providence not as fate imposed from without but as your soul’s arrangement of states. In this reading, the host is your own vibrational field, a congregation of significances called into being by your attention. To Neville-ize it means to acknowledge that every scene is a projection of consciousness and that the presence of the host proves that you are already crowned by the reality you seek. The practice is simple: assume the feeling of the host's presence now, dwell in the sense that you are living inside your own I AM, and let the movements of events fall into alignment with that truth.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and repeat, 'This is the host of God within me.' Feel the I AM surrounding you like a protecting multitude, and rest in that reality for several breaths.
