Inner Lightning, Outer Providence

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the verse as a description of the mind in its natural state: that which you call 'God' is the I AM behind all awareness, the power that arranges your inner weather. The lightning is not a thing out there but a flash of understanding that travels the entire mental sky, from your most hidden corner to your outward affairs. When Job says He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth, he is telling you that consciousness itself has directional sovereignty. Your thoughts, feelings, and circumstances are not random; they are movements within one living awareness. The I AM places the spark where it serves your present needs—whether revealing truth, dissolving fear, or catalyzing action. By imagining this order as already established, you align with a reality where every event is a sign of the mind's coherence. Practice silence, become the observer of the mental weather, and allow the inner lightning to travel to the far reaches of your life, guided by your deeper I AM.
