Read Jonah 2 in context

Scripture Focus

7When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.

Jonah 2:7

Biblical Context

In the depths of weariness, the soul remembers the LORD. Prayer rises into the divine temple of awareness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Jonah's cry lies a manual for inner awakening. When the soul faints, it has wandered from the I AM—the living awareness you ARE. To remember the LORD is to remember that you are the I AM in form, and that the temple sought is the sanctuary of your own mind, the imaginative center where images become reality. Your prayer is not a plea to an external deity but a return of attention to the source of being. As you persist in that remembrance, the felt sense of the desired state enters the heart, and the temple doors open to receive you. The outer world shifts as dream-images awaken and walk into your life.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare 'I AM' within you. Then imagine entering your inner temple with the feeling of already having your desire, letting that reality saturate your awareness.
