Ark of Inner Righteousness

Neville's Inner Vision

Genesis 7:1 is not a history lesson but a present-tense invitation to the reader: the I AM within you beckons you into the ark of consciousness with your whole inner household. The ark is a fixed state of awareness you assume and dwell in, while the flood outside represents the agitation of fear and change. The line 'for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation' is the inner verdict: you are recognized as righteous by your own awareness when you align with the I AM here and now. To enter the ark is to retreat from the noise of appearances and rest in a steady state of being. The 'house'—your thoughts, feelings, and desires—follows when they are invited into the same state; obedience becomes effortless as you hold the assumption. So, not by works but by inner alignment, you are saved from the storm. The invitation is continuous: claim the inner righteousness, and the ark takes you through the flood in safety.
