Scripture Focus

14Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
John 11:14

Biblical Context

The verse records Jesus plainly telling the disciples that Lazarus has died.

Neville's Inner Vision

To me, Lazarus’s death is the plain fact of an outer appearance, not the truth of your inner reality. The name Lazarus stands for a segment of your life you have counted as dead by fear, doubt, or a story of lack. When Jesus speaks plainly, he exposes the surface meaning, inviting you to look inward where the I AM, your true awareness, reigns. In Neville’s psychology, death is a state of consciousness that can be revived by a different assumption. The tomb is a pattern of thought; the stone is the stubborn habit you keep returning to. Resurrection is the deliberate re-imagination of the entire situation from the end you desire. Begin by assuming that the man in the tomb is already alive in your inner life; feel the life you seek as present, even before external evidence shifts. Imagination creates reality, so dwell in the feeling of being already free, and the outer scene will follow by law.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and revise the inner state by declaring, 'Lazarus is alive in me now'; feel that life within. Then proceed in faith as if the tomb has opened, letting the new life unfold.
