Hosea 6:4 Inner Righteousness Cloud

Neville's Inner Vision

The passage presents goodness as something evaporating like a morning cloud, a sign that outward obedience without inner consistency is insufficient. In Neville’s light, God is the I AM—the constant awareness behind every thought and sensation. Your true righteousness is not a fluctuating event in time but a fixed state of consciousness you assume as real. When goodness appears then vanishes, it does not condemn you; it invites you to shift attention from the weather of your life to the inner sun of your being. By assuming the state of unwavering fidelity—the felt sense that you are already aligned with your I AM—you revoke identification with transient conditions and let the inner law operate. As you dwell in that assumption, you’ll notice the so-called clouds thinning, revealing a steadier sense of self. The call is not to produce obedience, but to inhabit the consciousness that makes obedience unnecessary, for you are always living from your true, undying self beneath appearances.
