Inner Healing Through Faith

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that James names no distant savior outside your own awareness. The 'prayer of faith' is a clause in your inner drama—the assumption your I AM accepts as already true. When you feel sick, you have merely rehearsed a state that denies health. The cure is not pleading to a person, but revising the scene inside you: imagine the body already well, feel the vitality circulating, and declare, I AM health. The phrase 'the Lord shall raise him up' becomes the rise of a new inner state that can lift the outward form; and 'if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven' points to releasing guilt and misbelief that attach to illness. Forgiveness is a turning of attention from fault to the truth of life. In this sense, faith is active alignment with the truth of being, not wishful hoping. When you dwell in such a state, the healing manifests as the natural radiance of your I AM, drawing events that reflect that inner certainty. The sick become the sign that your inner world has shifted; your body is the echo of your consciousness.
