Immutable Covenant of Hope

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this brief oracle lies your own inner covenant. The God who swore to Abraham is not distant; He is the I AM within you, the ever-present awareness that cannot lie. Because there is no greater in the realm of mind, He swore by Himself, sealing a promise so real that it exists now as your inner state. The two immutable things are not two distant events, but two fixed convictions in consciousness: the promise you feel as blessing and the oath you affirm as unbreakable, the inner verdict that this is so. When you dwell in this certainty, you gain a strong consolation and a refuge for your heart, for the world will eventually reflect the inner convincingness you cultivate. Endurance then is faith practiced until the state of the fulfilled promise becomes your present sense of \"I AM\". The immutability of His counsel corresponds to the unchanging nature of your own awareness; you are the heirs who lay hold on hope by living from the end, not from appearance. Thus, the inner covenant transforms your outward experience without strain or struggle.
