Inner Covenant Now

Neville's Inner Vision

Your true drink and food are the images and beliefs you entertain. 'Wine' and 'strong drink' symbolize distractions that dull awareness; 'unclean' things symbolize thoughts and impulses that dirty the temple of consciousness. The command to beware is not external surveillance but an inward decision by the I AM to govern experience. When you rest in the I AM, you realize you are not at the mercy of cravings; you are the sovereign consciousness that can choose what enters your awareness. By assuming the state of holiness, you effectively revoke the old diet of stimuli and images; you no longer need to drink what dulls you or swallow thoughts that cloud your mind. Each act of watchfulness is a prayer that redefines your inner climate. The covenant loyalty mentioned is your faithful alignment with truth within, which, in Neville’s terms, is the felt reality that shapes events to harmonize with purity. As you persist in this mental posture, the outer world begins to respond with clearer choices, integrity, and conditions that reflect the purification you have assumed inwardly.
