Inner Sacramental Sobriety

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Leviticus 10:8-9, you are not merely obeying a ritual; you are learning to govern your inner atmosphere. The prohibition against wine or strong drink is a symbol for sobriety of consciousness when you enter the tabernacle of your mind. The tabernacle is the sacred space of awareness where God the I AM resides. If you carry intoxicants—desire, fear, or sensory drama—you dilute that presence and you die to true perception, for you identify with a lower state. By adopting the stance that I am sober and fully awake, you reverse the effect: you become the temple where Spirit freely enters. The statute becomes a living practice: any moment you feel pulled by distraction, revise to In this moment I am the witness; I am the I AM here, now. When you claim that, you honor life, you remain alive to possibility, and you keep the door open for divine presence to move through you.
