Inner Abundance in His Midst

Neville's Inner Vision

In Joel's promise, abundance is not a decree handed by fate but the natural fruit of an awakened I AM listening to itself. When you imagine the Lord your God as the I AM in the midst of your being, the mind stops fluttering after external proofs and rests in the conviction that fullness is your native state. The lines 'my people shall never be ashamed' reveal a covenant of awareness—loyalty to the Presence that does not falter when appearances say otherwise. You are shown that the true Israel is your consciousness, and the 'in the midst' is the quiet center that remains untouched by fear, lack, or guilt. As you dwell there, you eat in plenty, you praise, and you recognize that all blessings flow from the same, singular I AM. The practice of grace and mercy becomes natural when you accept that every act of kindness toward you flows from your own heart's recognition of God’s nearness. Thus, satisfaction becomes a state of readiness, not a chase; the sign you know you are in the right place is the absence of shame, replaced by confident presence.
