Altar of Inner Covenant

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner drama, the altar is not a stone you carry outward but a decision you make within. Mount Ebal stands for the high place in you where a new covenant can be signed with the I AM as witness. The instruction to use whole stones, with no iron lifting, speaks to the total integrity of your faculties—every part of you offered to God, untouched by force or manipulation. The burnt offerings are the burning away of former states of lack or fear; the peace offerings seal a harmony between your desire and the divine order. When you obey the inner law written in your heart, you align your imagination with the covenant you already are. The event becomes not an external ritual but a shift of consciousness: you cease resisting and begin feeling the truth that God is within you, the I AM that experiences itself as you. Practically, enter a quiet hour, declare that you are the Lord of your life, and offer every limitation to the flame of your imagination, feeling the covenant renewed within you.
