Read Judges 6 in context

Scripture Focus

39And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
40And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
Judges 6:39-40

Biblical Context

Gideon asks God for a sign by making the fleece dry and the ground dew. God grants the sign that night.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine Gideon not as a man who tests a distant deity, but as a moment within you where a state of awareness asks for confirmation. The fleece represents a question you hold in consciousness: is this movement of faith truly aligned with the I AM. When you set the condition let the fleece be dry while the ground is dew you are not pleading for power you are choosing a state to prove to yourself what you already are. God’s response dry fleece and dew on the ground illustrates that consciousness can distinguish itself from appearances. The sign comes not from an external event but from your inner setting your readiness to accept the state you intend. This is Providence working through your own imagination: you imagine what you desire and persist in it until it feels inevitable. When you feel the reassurance that the answer exists now the outer world shifts to reflect that inner order. It is the same presence, the I AM, guiding you by recognizing and adjusting your inner state until it matches your spoken or felt wish.

Practice This Now

Act: Sit quietly, breathe, and assume the feeling I am already in possession of the answer. Visualize the sign you seek as a present reality and feel the certainty settle into your chest.
