Biblical Context
Genesis 7:11-12 describes the deep fountains breaking up and heaven's windows opening, with rain falling for forty days and nights, marking a dramatic turn in the narrative. It signals a move from old conditions toward renewal.
Neville's Inner Vision
All scripture speaks from the inside out. When Genesis says the fountains of the great deep were broken up and the windows of heaven were opened, it is telling you of a shift in consciousness. The deep fountains are the long-buried beliefs, stubborn identifications, and automatisms of the ego that have kept you chained to a smaller you. When those waters break, the old sense of limitation loses its power. The windows of heaven opening is the perception of unlimited possibility entering awareness—clarity, inspiration, and a mood of confidence flooding the mind. The rain that falls for forty days and forty nights is the sustained cleansing of your inner atmosphere, a continuous washing away of doubt and fear until a new condition is established in imagination. This is the law Neville teaches: your inner state determines your outer scene. The 'deluge' is not punishment but purification; the 'ark' is your ongoing conscious state that remains intact as old beliefs dissolve. You are invited to dwell in the I AM, the perceiver who opens the heaven and invites the new creation into your experience.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and assume the feeling of the opened heavens. In your imagination, let the deep waters of old beliefs break up and rain of new possibilities fall on you for a full five minutes, then carry that state forward.
