Inner Exhortation Hebrews 3:13

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the verse as a statement about your interior state. Exhortation is not an external duty but a vibration you emit from the I AM within, a blessing you speak in the imagination to remind yourself that all are one in God. When you 'exhort' others daily, you are rehearsing the truth that the same life that breathes in you breathes in your brother and sister. The word 'Today' points to the present act of awareness; thus, this daily practice keeps your consciousness fresh, refusing the hardening that sin would impose. Sin, in this inward reading, is deceitful belief in separation—an illusion that hardens the feelings and closes the heart. By imagining a friend uplifted, even if only in your inner speech, you awaken an identical state in you. Your willingness to encourage becomes the lever by which your own sense of unity and perseverance is strengthened. Thus mutual exhortation becomes a spiritual technology: cultivate unity, endure in love, and obey the inner call of the I AM, which operates through you to awaken others to their divine nature.
