Three Days and Inner Covenant

Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader, Joshua 9:16-17 is a mirror of your own inner life. The three days are the quiet time in which a new belief settles into the field of your awareness; the league with them is an inner covenant you have rehearsed in your mind about a situation. When you finally hear that the neighbors dwell among you, notice that what you call 'them' has moved into your own inner city—the boundary between self and other softens as consciousness expands. The presence of God is not a distant event but the I AM that recognizes truth beneath appearances. Providence walks with you when you stop judging by outward form and begin listening to the imaginative law you have already accepted as real. The seemingly deceptive appearance becomes a sign that your faith is updating; you are being led to see that every neighbor is a reflection of your own covenant with the divine. Trust that the story you tell yourself is being rewritten by your aware, inner governor.
