Inner Offerings of Isaiah 66:20

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the nations spoken of are not strangers abroad; they are streams of your own consciousness, awaiting unity. The brothers gathered for an offering are the many faculties—will, imagination, memory, perception—each arriving to the LORD, which is your I AM. The holy mountain Jerusalem is the quiet throne of awareness where all diversities are seen as one. When you imagine them coming on horses, in chariots, and upon swift beasts, you name the varying speeds of inner movement and invite them into a single, purified vessel. A 'clean vessel' is not a mere outside purity but a clarified idea of yourself, held free of drift and blame. As you hold this vision, you realize the act of worship is complete in consciousness; you do not bargain with God, you recognize that God is the I AM right where you stand. In that recognition, the inner city rises within you, and the Presence becomes felt as inevitable, intimate, and now.
